Good luck, Helen. Erin sends along her best wishes also.

On a side note, hopefully they have the route clearly marked and planned out for the run. That way, there's no need for a silly GPS. :rolleyes: ;) :p

Thanks everyone! I'm really excited! Trying to get all packed up tonight...Josh is bummed that the weather here will be crappy and he can't go metal-detecting. But he gets to leave the boys with his parents on Saturday night, and is driving up on Sunday to catch the second half of it. Anyway, it'll be great!

Well, even after 26 miles, Helen still looks adorable (Erin says congrats and good for her!).

However, Josh - I'm not too sure about all that dirt you have on your face. :wink:

Bravo for the great performance you did. I admire anyone with the endurance to do this feat.:way-to-go:

Thanks again everybody! Did Josh mention that he said he has a goal to run one by the time he's 35? :clapping:

Wow, 26 miles. Congrats! That is quite an accomplishment. Just finishing I'm sure was awarding as well.

I forgot Josh is so young. I was 35 once.

4hrs and 33 minutes of running?????
Girl, you done lost your mind!:nyaa-nyaa4:

You could have stayed home on the couch and watched Forest Gump and Running Man. Total run time for both movies 4 hrs 5mins.
That would have left you with 28mins extra for bathroom, twinkies, ice cream, soda, smoke brake etc....

:grinning-moose:

Congratulations Mrs. Josh!!!! WOW, 26 MILES:eek:
