And while...Zab, you are sitting pretty, my friend. And while a 19-minute improvement is a lot to ask, it's not really when you consider that your training this time has been far superior to any past cycle. Not to mention the gloriously cool day that awaits you!<br /><br />You are ready.

I work with Ken and Judy Fanaro (Cru's one set of grandparents) and gave you a shout out at the time as a new runner - I think at that point I'd only run a half marathon. I've since run the Illinois Marathon in April and will be with you in the sea of humanity on 10/11 - although at least 45 minutes behind you.<br /><br />I was just checking in to see how your training and fund raising were going. I can't BELIEVE the weekly mileages you've put up - truly amazing. Best of luck on the 3:10. I'll be cheering for you.Mark M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18124232113006891819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4539743274610335615.post-47956679232033147312009-09-23T13:47:23.216-05:002009-09-23T13:47:23.216-05:00Great Pictures!

I ran with them for my first ever 20 mile run two years ago, and I totally understand how frustrating it must be to have been to navigate your way around the pace groups. And yes, it's a very expensive training run, especially when you consider that most of them have already spent tons of $$ for both the marathon and the training program.The Puerto Rican Kenyanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13806727721748444970noreply@blogger.com
