Marathon Commentary

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you ladies for everything you did to organize and motivate those of us running for reading this year. I had an awesome time on Sunday (as in fun time, though I was really proud of my 3:46, a good 22 minutes better than my old p.r.!) and even though by mile 17 I swore I’d never do another marathon, I’m already thinking about the next one. It was definitely more meaningful because I knew I was running for a cause I believe in, and the whole fundraising process was actually really enjoyable. I’m really glad I stumbled upon Rock For Reading earlier this year, and I am so grateful for all the time you guys put into this team.

Thanks, and hope you runners are feeling great this week!
