My third, fourth and fifth child...

...that's what this whole marathon thing has become. My entire schedule revolves around when and where the next run will be. I schedule my eating, resting, real children and even look a week into the weather forecast to plan early runs...at the same time loving every minute of this challenge! It is slightly neurotic and I cannot even imagine what the Ultra Marathoner's go thru. I was following the Badwater Ultramarathon the past two days and there is something enticing about running 135 miles in the desert. I know....sounds weird but I want to know what it must feel like to hit the 89 mile mark, in the heat , and know that I have 46 more miles to go...non-stop...HELLO??? www.badwater.com (26.2 in Kaua'i doesn't look so bad.)
