I’m behind again…but thought of you over Ragnar this weekend and knew I needed to catch up. I would’ve totally been there had I lived close!

I read your blog from time to time, but this is my first time commenting. Susan & Elden’s story is amazing. I’m a runner who was sidelined with a broken leg (car wreck) for 5 months and when I get frustrated at how long it’s taking me to even be able to do a 5k now, I think of them. Also…my brother is a cyclist, so I have a soft spot for the cycling community too.

One more thing: way to go with the Pike’s Peak run! I’m in awe!

Holy mother, the blog you linked to? You should have told me “BRANDY! GET ALL OF YOUR KLEENEX READY AND WHEN YOU RUN OUT OF KLEENEX, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WOMAN, USE YOUR SLEEVE”. What an amazing story.

And you know if I was closer, I would be there. With guacamole at the finish line.

I read Elden’s blog after you linked to it recently. It is an amazing, sad and inspiring story and it highlights again the importance of family and friends. And what is important in your life. Priorities.
Of course, it would be nice to have your family and friends meeting you at the end of the race, but as in your situation with Susan and her family, in the absence of not being there in person, I will be cheering and supporting from afar.
Good luck L.
