Great Video Interview!

Check out this YouTube video about the Boston marathon. I was looking for something inspiring to post and love this one because:
1)It is filmed at the bottom of Heartbreak Hill, just before all the runners head up it.
2)It is filmed during winter training
3)It is especially inspiring seeing all the charity runners who run for a cause. I even saw my old teammate Jill who was running for Team in Training!

Check it out and get revved up, everybody!

Heartbreak Hill

Last week was our first run through Heartbreak. This hill occurs around mile 20 in the race, and I believe it is the placement of this hill that is so problematic for runners. On a 10 mile run it sure felt possible, but stuck at the end of a marathon, who can tell?? This feels a bit like the student who realizes he has to rely on his past lessons to get through a difficult recital- it requires some FAITH. This Saturday is 11 miles and look forward to the warm weather forecasts!
