Oh wait, I was - at the beginning! It was so awesome that you said hello, and I am so happy for your HUGE CRUSHING EPIC PR!!! What a great day. I agree with everything you said about the race, I'm so happy I did this one. And your pic is better than my pic, for some reason i can't seem to look at my own camera - I'm looking at where the camera was on my old phone so I look like I'm staring weird into space. OOPS!

Your entire first few paragraphs are thoughts I have in my head all the time about running with others and it's only recently that I have allowed myself to embrace the vulnerability and give it a try. To great results, I might add. Now, I am a Dolphins fan (although I am married to a suffering Jets fan), but other than that, I can't wait to go back and read more of your posts. <br /><br />Congratulations again! <br /><br />Runs With Pugshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03171128110788554302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-970768792371435412.post-80186235151548774082014-12-01T20:11:50.944-04:002014-12-01T20:11:50.944-04:00Frank this is a fabulous recap.
