A favoritve quote of mine.....

First a quick thanks to everyone for the advice and well wishes.  I am feeling much better now and am ready to run!  Just thought I would post a quote I found about this crazy thing called running marathons. And then I am going to TRY and get some sleep!


"Listen. Yeah, it's gonna hurt some. That's the marathon business.

But here's the thing. When it starts to get intense, that's not time to panic. This is what you wanted to happen. It means that all the training, all the miles, all the wakeups, all the cold, all the wet, all the sleep-deprived days and all the shit you've done to yourself over the last 6 plus months is finally about to pay off. It means you've put yourself where you wanted to be. You've given yourself an opportunity that very few will ever have. You've given yourself a chance.

Now finish it." -Unknown
