Here are some photos from last year's 2008 marathon..since have put in no training in past month, am hoping to run this weekend's NYCM, my 20th, at an ultra pace... good luck to everyone this weekend where ever you may be racing...
Bob --good luck at javelina!! You are prob heading there today or tomm-hope you hook up with Tammy on the trails and finish the 100 blister free and knee-pain free. Michael--see you at the expo tomm -does Frank have your cell number?? Hope so...otherwise it may be a wee bit crazy. I have had a painful bone bruise of the metatarsal foot bone and I of course didn't let it heal. My ultra pace is usually 3:50 -4:20 marathon (9-10 min pace in a 50K).. but even if I walk it that's OK, as long as I don't do more damage to the bone and foot which is weak. I am the queen of aqua-jogging...an also walk 3 miles with my son every day after school --looking forwad to it though!! Hard to believe that NYCM 1982 was my first marathon...
I am married with 3 boys, ages 17, 13, and 10. I worked in advertising and financial marketing for 12 years and was a free-lance writer. I am now semi-retired but keep busy with art classes, volunteer work, and competitive running. Would like to go back to work as a writer when my youngest gets older.
