Finding something that makes you laugh when you're at low points in your running 'steam' can make a WORLD of difference on the course. <br /><br />You're awesome!Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02616409244912073343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8523504048513277805.post-92110949464747062392010-03-24T09:42:48.823-07:002010-03-24T09:42:48.823-07:00there's so much good stuff in this post, it...there's so much good stuff in this post, it's hard to remember everything i wanted to say.<br /><br />the new course looks fantastic! and the nike green people are quite amusing. oh - and WOW to the man with the 52nd marathon tee!<br /><br />i remember having a blast cheering on the OC ladies two years ago. like amber, i'd love to join you next year!wanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13898341154510122057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8523504048513277805.post-12335083079750998512010-03-24T06:34:24.277-07:002010-03-24T06:34:24.277-07:00Dude, I love this post!

You know I can get my cheer on and I have no problem acting the fool in front of large crowds. :) <br /><br />Seriously though, I remember the people like you when we did the 3Day walk. You were the kinds of folks that made all the difference and really helped us push through the pain when all we really wanted to do was to just stop and grab a drink. So thank you. You rock missy!!amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12029076436322883513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8523504048513277805.post-66585725037482299332010-03-23T23:51:35.208-07:002010-03-23T23:51:35.208-07:00I wonder if you know how much it means to runners ...I wonder if you know how much it means to runners to have people out there like you cheering them on. You who have no reason other than to support the runners that are strangers to you. It means a lot, at least it did to me. For us non-natural born runners it's a painful experience and any support along the way from spectators really pushes you on. <br /><br />I love the father-son shirts. Omg tears. The doggies. AJ. I wish I had come along to cheer with you. And I too love Wesley's statement. That got me all chokey as well. =)<br /><br />Thanks for a great photo recap and commentary.10yearstogetherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10558489602768601589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8523504048513277805.post-62381070249962421292010-03-23T20:18:22.228-07:002010-03-23T20:18:22.228-07:00This is fabulous!
