That just doesn't sound fun at all!! It sounds like you made the best of it, as you always do! That's great that you're starting your tri training, I can't wait to hear how it goes! Snow in May?

We aren't going to the CURE race tomorrow, but will be thinking of all the survivors we know. Best wishes. Good to read that you are doing so well.

How crazy. Good plan to treat that as a sort of training run (and get a cool shirt!). I hope you get some great weather for Fargo. Keep up the excellent work with your training!

Good job handling those conditions. I would have liked to enjoy the scenery but I was too busy keeping my head down so my hat didn't blow off. You sure got a great training run in, close to your next race. Good luck at Fargo, it will surely be windy there, too! --Mark Beth,

I like how you approached the half, thinking of meeting the persons you know. I remember many years ago, I made the same with a friend of mine, very very rich person, who lives in a big villa (former owner the actor Marcello Mastroianni) along the Appia Antica in Rome. When I got the 12° km he came out and began to run with me, the runners asked: "is that house yours"? He was so embarrassed to reply: "nooooo I am the gardener"!!!!! I kept the secret......

At least I saw Mike by the finish shoot:) He was kind enough to cheer me on...ask him if I looked tired and pathetic. We all get gold stars for running this one! Oh well, they all can't be perfect. Good luck with your training and give um hell in Fargo! Love and hugs! Hi Beth,

I don't know how you put up with that Northern weather. All I want to do is move further south! It better not be snowing in Fargo... Good for you sticking to plan and running as a training race.

Its amazing to me when I look back at my own running and how I was so impressed with myself when I ran a mile to what I have accomplished today. That said the friendships and experiences far out weigh any personal achievements and are what I will remember long after I hang up the running shoes. Best of luck at Fargo! Nice Work!
