Good luck this weekend. Tell everyone else good luck too. Dont worry about the rain eh? It will keep you nice and cool. Bring an extra garbage bag to wear over you to keep you dry until you start running. Then shed it and throw it away.

Thanks you guys!! We're getting ready to leave town in a little bit.. guess that means there's no turning back???!! LOL!

Got 5 garbage bags packed.. 1 for all of us.. I won't really mind the rain.. you're right Chuck, it will keep us cool! Better than humidity, eh??

Talk to ya when it's DONE!!!!

Wow, what can we say after running through the eye of Hurricane Ike? I am so sorry that your hard training wasn't evident today when the course was cut short at 10 miles, just when the weather actually got better. You are amazing and you can definitely do a full marathon whenever you are able to enter another one.

We certainly gave it our best shot didn't we Kathy!!!?? Ice, snow, wind, rain, humidity, now we can add 'hurricane' to our list! Nothing can stop us, that's for sure!! OK, well we HAD to stop today, but at least we attempted it!!
You are such a sweetie..your encouragement helps me to keep gong!! I hope my next attempt is waaay better tho!
Chuck - ever done Quad Cities?? I think I'm there...
