Kat,

She would love it, we looked at I2P web site and she was very excited about the possibility. She could be contacted on face book, if you would like. She is off to UNC in mid Aug, and you know what the collage schedules are.

Grateful you dodged the worst of that encounter and looking forward to your recovery otherwise, we'll be cheering whether you're posting or not, Kat!

Hey everyone! You guys are so sweet. Today has been a mess of a day- this morning an aggressive driver ran me off the road while on my bike and into a parked car. My friend said he saw the guy swerve at me; I saw the guy flip me off as he drove by and honked. I was as far to the right as I could have been and even if I was in the middle of the road, I have the right to be there. Super scary that people are that aggressive. Thankfully the worst I have are bumps and bruises, but my bike is in the shop and the wreck busted out the parked car's taillight. Since no one got the plate of the aggressive driver I'm taking the hit for the tail light which makes me really angry, but I keep telling myself at least I wasn't hurt. What a month!

Phillip, would your daughter ever consider going (or would you ever let her go) on one of i2P's expeditions? We usually do two a year and it's an incredible intersection of amazing athletic feats, travel, wonderful young adults and some pretty cool expedition leaders (I'm a little biased!)

Dennis, thanks for your kind words! I can't wait to hear about your HIM! I think you're training much more diligently than I am (which doesn't mean too much considering I'm not running!) but it's great to see how people are growing into themselve as athletes!

Becky, thanks for reframing that a half marathon is a feat in and of itself. I'm excited to see another side of "racing." Have a great weekend with your family!

Mike, are you still shooting for MCM? I remember that you were injured. You have so much talent, I can't wait until it's able to fully manifest itself!

Jimmy, I'll come to Hawaii and be your support crew! Jealous! Say hi to Liz and rub the kiddos' heads for me.

Len, I'll be back because I miss you guys (and gals) too

Sara, so you can be pulled out of the woodwork?! You would probably be happy to hear that my tuxedo is tolerating chemo well and super lovey. I'm a lucky girl.

Charlotte, you are always one of my biggest cheerleaders. Thanks so much for your support! I cannot WAIT to hear about Boston! Please send my love to Bill.

MarathonDream, I will do my best to get back to kicking butt. And running marathons

Ron, thanks for the good wishes re: the back and the comps. It's been okay, I just feel like I'm spinning plates and with my coordination you know that has potential for disaster (but I've been keeping them in the air so far!)

You guys and gals rock! I'll try to pop in more often soon!

Hi Kat! I'm really hoping your back heals up good and we can read more about your exploits and adventures! And good luck with your psych dissertation work! I've gotten a pretty good taste of what going through that's like thanks to my wife.

Come back here again soon!

Ron

VERY good to hear from you again! I hope you heal up quickly and get back to kicking butt.

Take care of yourself.

Kat we miss you, of course. I''m so glad you're on FB, so I don't feel like you've completely disappeared. Can't wait to hear about your adventures in the near future.

There's no real reason to apologize. You have to deal with what life throws at you. If it takes you away for a while, we miss you. Just so you come back.

Kat,

I have been MIA on here some myself. I love being MIA from time to time. I can not talk about the injury because after 20 years or more of running I am still injury free. Most I have ever dealt with is a slight case of ITB.

I will be at MCM this year and will also be running the a marathon in Hawaii in September. I am starting to think I will not be at any race before either of those. I ran 11 miles today and April is off to a fine start.

Kat,

Don't know you, but miss reading your awesome posts and adventures. Understand the injury thought, and look forward to seeing you around the board as able. BTW, I was sidelined last year, but still pushing for my first marathon this year. Again, your writings and those of the other umm.... 'seasoned' athletes, inspired me.

Grace and peace,

Michael
