I don't get credit for this pic - my friend took it - but it's my favorite ever sports picture. It is from the morning of my first marathon; I stayed with friends in my running club. One of those friends is the guy who won the race (he ran a 2:32) - pretty cool, he had taken me out over the course the day before and given me pointers on all the stretches to watch for. And then we had dinner together that night and breakfast the next morning... I am such a lucky girl! anyway, the picture is his water bottles and gels with exactly where he wanted them in the race. They had all these crazy messages on them. For my next marathon, I am making water bottles that have SUCK IT UP, PRINCESS written all over them :D
maybe she's born with it, maybe it's chlorine
If you're injured and need some sympathy, PM me and I'm very happy to write back.
