Fast Running Mommy

You are so right about the non-profit, mission-based idea about the blog and the activities you guys are promoting. I know Sasha has to roll his eyes/throw up his hands sometimes over what he has created (we are such unruly children, who don't all run FAST, after all)-- but the sense of community has been an amazing blessing in my life. I would love a family run, a make up your own cause, try really hard to run fast race in the near future. Thank you for giving us a reason to try harder, and run faster! Only, I have to tell you, it's a little intimidating to run an anti-obesity race. I'm trying to lose those winter 7 I promise!

I'm glad the race went well for you. Unfortunately, I am too intimidated to run in one of Sasha's races on a day when I don't feel like going into the puke zone.

Was he happy with the turnout and runners?

You guys!! He's married to a non-runner type runner ..he doesn't judge the pace..just the effort. BTW Luz..Sasha..who doesn't give light compliments or mention random things mentioned to me how well you did on your race today. He was impressed with your time and with your effort and did not notice the 7 extra pounds for goodness sake. He wants to improve everyone's fitness and desire for excellence but certainly doesn't expect everyone to fit into a cookie cutter time. He knows that my effort however pathetic in the world's eyes in world class for my body and I'm sure he thinks the same of everyone. He doesn't like whiners or excuses like any good running god but doesn't judge either.
