awesome. I am with ya though - you would never hear that *I* was doing a marathon. I am sooooo proud of you!!! Sorry to hear about the grand canyon hike. Try again next year???

My good friend who was also 35 told me that her 30's were the best times of her life. I newly being into this decade cannot agree right now, due to the recent events of the weekend. My old roommate wrote me an email about how she saw all these people do triathalons, including a 78 year old man and that it was inspiring her to run more. I was like, umm ok you are nuts. Especially since the heat index was 105. Not kidding.

You can and will do what you want. I like to do things just to see if I can do them. One day I would like to run a marathon. I think, then I realize that I probably can't because of my foot injury I am not supposed to run outdoors. Anywho. Do what makes you happy. :)

Running a marathon always struck me as a death wish; but, hey, go for it if you don't mind pure pain!!
