training & pony tails

What is she listening to? 
She doesn't even look exhausted after 20 miles! 


I had to beg her to let me buy her a new pair of running shoes!
I can't tell you how proud I am of my daughter who is training for her first marathon.  I was very happy to ride along side of her on my bike while she ran 20 miles the other day.  This was her final long run before the NYC marathon.  I had no idea what was involved in the training.  As I followed behind her I watched her pony tail swing from side to side.  I couldn't help but remember that same pony tail swinging from side to side as she walked up the driveway to meet the bus taking her to kindergarten.  

The big day is coming soon and I'm getting excited for her!  I cannot wait to go cheer her on!
