So...I am the second poster for this blog. I could be considered the polar opposite of my dear friend when it comes to running. Where she is fast (Boston fast!), I am...a bit slower. Where she enjoys a long run I have to trick myself into it. In fact I have many tricks I play on myself to get through my long runs. Where she enjoys a hill here and there, I avoid them like the plague. Which is one of the reasons I will not be participating in the Lake Placid Marathon...those hills are more like mountains, seriously. I would whine the whole time so I figured I would save her the misery. Though I will be participating in the next adventure; Tough Mudder! But, before we begin sharing that training process I would like to wish my friend good luck on this weekend's athletic endeavor. May your feet be swift, and the weather perfect, may your chocolate GU not leak in your pants (imagine what that would look like!) and your glide keep you chafe free and finally if you must make an emergency pit stop, avoid the leaves of three!
¡Buena Suerte!
