holy canoli (sp?) you look amazing in those pics! I'm sorry to hear all you're going through right now. It's hard to stay motivated when you're sick but you should be proud of yourself for continuing to want to better yourself and keeping going with your work outs and course and mold investigations....

Oh gosh Bonnie that's dreadful! I hope there is a resolution and fast. In the meantime take care of yourself.

I'm already looking for next race (want to do a 10K in November)...like I said - h...

haha just read this now - I just posted on YOUR journal about how inspiring YOU have been to ME lmao!!!

Edgar,
I didn't say before now but you have inspired me a lot regarding running - to the point where I ran a half marathon this weekend. I put up a post about it on journal.
Hope the muscles ease soon from your great run on the weekend. Congratulations and well done!
Onwards and upwards
