I've run 14 Grandma's Half Marathons and the same thoughts run through my head every year as I get ready to leave the camper and climb on the bus to take me to the start. I've given you 19 thoughts, you give me the 20th!

Training for this year's Grandma's Marathon Half was going great, better than expected.  My time had improved by 1:30 per mile because I had started "toe running", I had one 13.1 and one 14.3 mile under my belt.  Then less than two weeks out from my 15th consecutive half marathon, I was told I couldn't run.

Once again, Cathy Kates is running the Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon tomorrow.  I made her a playlist to help her out, and I gave a little bit of a sample for her today on the air.  I think it will work great!  It includes fun songs, motivating songs, and songs about dying.  Just kidding.   Well kinda.
