Has anyone ever seen a "pack" of skunks? Saw at least 5 together on my Sunday run. Took a different route this morning...

Most of us are not that good at math. I fancy myself pretty good, but this one had me confused at first! http://bit.ly/13zqGM

She just said: I'm going to write down all your important informations on your health chart. Yes, she did.

58+ oz of water, 48 oz of Gatorade, 6 gu, 1 powerbar. Finished a 21 mile run in 3:45.

It was much better than the previous 19 miler. Had an ice bath which Ana climbed in as well! My sister Linnae is a stud, she kicked my butt. Way to go Linnae! Only one more long run before the Chicago Marathon!!

 I had no idea training for the marathon would be so much harder than the half!

 Anyone have any advice on how to avoid leg cramps in the late miles of a really long run??

 Which photo do you think is how we really felt?? :-)

The number of people asking for "diet" dr pepper floats is simply stunning. They also don't have diet m&ms or diet snickers!

Finished up a 6 miler with little pain. I didn't know if I'd ever be back to normal after last week's run!
