In fact, while you were doing your half-marathon yesterday, I took up a challenge to walk 400 miles in 2011. I know I'm getting a late start, but I'm going to try. Who knows, maybe after awhile I'll start running too.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04662751045378148853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36253142.post-76299879870319637582011-05-03T08:59:07.186-04:002011-05-03T08:59:07.186-04:00Very proud of you!!

My son ran his first marathon yesterday, and watching it, I gained such a respect for you long distance runners and the stamina and will you have to finish the job!! I cannot imagine running for 3 hours straight, or in his case 4 hours and 19 minutes. Kill me now! My son said he felt wonderful and terrible all at the same time. And at that point, he said he didn't want to run another one, LOL.
