weekly check-in

[ilanarama]

Hello, runners? How goes it? Did you race this weekend? Are you racing next weekend? How goes the change of seasons in your part of the world?

Here's your inspirational quote for the week:

"We run, not because we think it is doing us good, but because we enjoy it and cannot help ourselves...The more restricted our society and work become, the more necessary it will be to find some outlet for this craving for freedom. No one can say, 'You must not run faster than this, or jump higher than that.' The human spirit is indomitable." - Sir Roger Bannister

I ran exactly once last week - then came down with a cold. The only thing that's been running has been my nose. But I got 4 miles in today, and assuming I feel better in a couple of days, I will be running my sixth marathon on Saturday.

Sixth! Marathon!

I am so impressed by you, and the others on this community, who have reached such milestones. Best of luck, and I hope you enjoy yourself.

Aw, thanks! Marathons are easy - you just keep running and don't stop. :-)

Yay marathon! Go you!

Uurgh, I hope it's a quick cold with few lasting effects - very best of luck on Sunday!

I hope you're improving and run faster than your nose! (um, apart from the anatomical difficulties this poses)
