JFK 50

This morning we received our official entry letters for the JFK 50 miles! I'm thrilled to be participating in this historic distance event again this year, and am looking forward to the goal of chopping hour or so from our last effort.

Many of you know the difficult, exhausting experience our family has been immersed in these last few weeks. It's been an intense roller-coaster of a time - but our one constant remains running. And although the time to write, mentally reminisce and wander about this great effort has all but ceased, the running, while much less than the 90+ miles a week scheduled, has continued. 10pm running, clearing out the mental minutia of the day, has been a necessary gift of time.

So we continue on, pumping our arms, pounding our feet & sweating through it. Until next time.
