Calling all runners and running fans:

Today I went out for a 12 mile run. The weather was perfect( sunny yet just a bit windy) and I felt physically and mentally great. What more can you ask for, right? With exactly one month to go ( or exactly four weeks and 1 day) until the LA Marathon, I've hit the peak and now I start cutting back my mileage this week coming up. This next Tuesday,however, I have my last 20 miler before the race. At this point the bulk of my training is done and I just need to make sure that I am gearing up mentally for the race.....I can already feel the birth of baby butterflies in my stomach....:)

A big round of applause for Kara Goucher and Ryan Hall for their outstanding performance at this year's 2009 Boston Marathon, held Monday May 20. They both obtained the 3rd place finish in their respective divisions. Great way to REPRESENT Ryan and Kara.....there will be plenty of races ahead to win that First place :) The following is a video of the 2009 Boston Marathon Men's and Women's race finish....Check it out and get inspired!!!...living our lifestyle on the run, R U?
