Victory # 2: I feel great!!!!!! Victory # 1 comes with completing each training run. It takes the day to see how well the # 2 will span out. My legs are sore, but it's not very bad at all and it's to be expected with my legs working as hard as they did in the slippery snow.

Today has been a great day!!!!!!! Thank you to Miss Anonymous for your $50 donation! It makes the 1.5 hours of snow running worth it! And I have a secret accomplishment as well! Lesson learned today, you just have to ask!!

THANK YOU to all my friends for the words of encouragment over the last two months. I absolutely delight in the simple words of, "I am so proud of you." In passing conversation around the office, it gives me chills to hear mention of those words. I received a text from Joe Pi last weekend with those exact words. It means so much and makes all the training, extra training, icing, reading and planning worth the effort! Yes, I am attempting something that only less than 3% of the US population have accomplished, but I'm all talk until it's completed. 91 days until the marathon, I'm putting in all my effort, ENTHUSIASM, and dedication to this effort with your nice words pushing me along.

Thank you!!!
