But even if you aren't prepared as fully as you would like, you know you can finish it and sometimes it's nice to have a race that is just "fun"...

I don't know how you do it. You need to bottle your energy and your attitude and sell it to the rest of us! You seriously amaze me. I don’t know how you do it.

That makes the Pikes Peak Challenge Hike that I am coming out to do in September seem like a cakewalk from an athletic standpoint. I need to try this run in a year or two. But first comes the Marine Corps Marathon, a multitude of half marathons over the winter, and a spring marathon. Or two, Vermont and something else.

So many props for tackling this! It is like 1000' more vertical than the big mountain I climbed last week - which I now feel less accomplished about doing. Thanks a lot... :) I had my first triathlon this weekend, which I certainly wasn't ready for (at least mentally) - but, as you said, I knew I was able. My lack of preparation meant I didn't push as hard as I could/should have on the swim or bike, but I finished with no problem - and really, that was all the mattered! You are crazy girl!!

And remember, you don't have to better yourself each time out. Enjoy the run, regardless of your complicated relationship with the course.
