Cheering from afar and sending my biggest, most badass vibes your way that you maintain positivity on your run, that your body rides the waves of pain gracefully and that you finish knowing there are no limits. I don’t wish luck to those who don’t need it, so I’ll just say…your friends here have your back. Crush it.

I'm not sure if this is what you or Lena have in mind when it comes to your running extending beyond your ego and having an impact on others, but almost every time I go out I think about you running some absurd distance and it makes me feel like my usual 8-10 is achievable. Also the beers after are good motivators. But you're right up there with the beers.

Go kill it in VT, brother. Hug the fam for me.

Super excited for you! You've done all you can to prepare and you understand the mental side of things as well as can be expected. Regardless of your finishing time, you've done amazing work and accomplished so much!

Thanks David. Just got to make it to the start and let the chips fall where they may.

I will be running a dinky little 5K at the same time, so be prepared to serve as my motivation to suck it up while you run a zillion miles. Crush it!!!

*You* will be crushing a 5K, LJ. I have no doubts.
