Upon hearing about her training, or lack there of, over thanksgiving I was getting excited about seeing how she would do. I sent her a good luck text but figured she was already running. <br /><br />I then log onto facebook and see info about it everywhere. I see she signed up for some tracker thing and think, Oh cool! It will track her and we can look up her time!<br />I then do some research and find the map of the route. This is 26 miles! And after finding the map I realize... THIS IS 26 MILES!!! So I post this on my facebook to share in my amazement. Not long after this I see Katies status that says she has reached the first checkpoint in just over an hour! How cool is it that we have the technology to post on facebook a running time in Hawaii when she crosses that point. SO COOL! <br />Throughout the morning I continue to check facebook and calculate her time. I realize she is keeping a steady pace through the whole thing! Impressed, I think so! <br /><br />Finally she finishes and I post all over her wall. (Cause I am a stalker like that) <br />I then patiently wait for this very blog. I read them both and realize just how little training was done. <br /><br />This #1 was amazing to me, and #2 made me want to kick Katie in the leg and see if she would have ran it off. My guess is yes. lol The point to this is I am amazed that you ran so far without training like a crazy person! <br /><br />I think it is so cool all the things you are doing in Hawaii. Really living. Jumping off cliffs, renting mopeds, going surfing, running marathons, getting a tattoo, swimming with turtles, and everything else! I am very impressed and glad you took the time to share it with us on here! =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
