Remembering St George

I was going through my email the other day and I received an advertisement for the St George Marathon. I was looking at the picture reminiscing about how much fun it was to run in the marathon when I thought to myself, "that girl in pink is wearing the same outfit that Alycia wore". I then noticed that the goofy looking guy next to her was wearing the same flaming orange shirt that I wore and the same blue running shoes. Well lo and behold it was Alycia and I running in the marathon. How fun. Of course you may notice that we are about the last people in the picture.  I think it is time to run another marathon. Who wants to enter the draw with me?

The original marathon in Greece 2,500 years ago was only 25 miles long. It was made 26.2 miles in the 1908 London Olympics so the royal children could watch the race from their castle. Spoiled kids, that last mile was a very long mile.
