You brought back many, many memories of the kids and I cheering my husband on through his many races, and the smaller scale 5Ks we do with the kids. The running community really is an inspiring group. <br />Yes, I cried a bit, too. :) Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209807996463889703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6039084287472642442.post-41675091093440209762013-05-04T11:44:58.494-07:002013-05-04T11:44:58.494-07:00"That's okay, Mom, you'll win next ti..."That's okay, Mom, you'll win next time."

I bought my compression shorts to help with a left hamstring issue, and they really helped!! I got them through Running Warehouse online.Sole Searching Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791024176229050045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6039084287472642442.post-54932011830791514442013-05-03T08:48:00.142-07:002013-05-03T08:48:00.142-07:00I LOVED this post, Susan.

But even bigger to me, was you running the OKC Memorial Marathon! I grew up in Norman and it was my senior high school year when the bombing happened. It's still so memorable...where I was, what I was doing, etc. Four of my high school friends lost their dads that day. I'm certain they appreciate your efforts!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14195777183146493560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6039084287472642442.post-36288080757319003852013-05-01T13:46:16.831-07:002013-05-01T13:46:16.831-07:00Thank you, Melody!!

It amazes me how many people volunteer and work so hard, just so I can run a few miles on a road! I ran my first half marathon in December. It was just above freezing and is RAINED the whole race . . . I thanked every single volunteer . . . they were out there, standing in the cold rain just so I could have water. What they did was far more heroic that me running that half that day.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11571439982499787798noreply@blogger.com
