It's been fun meeting your running friends, whether bloggers or So Cal runners. They are all wonderful people and I'm glad to have had the opportunity to have met them. If all your blogger friends around the US (and in Nova Scotia) are like this, it will be a pleasure to meet all of them. <BR/><BR/>Very descriptive race report, I can't imagine running through the mud and actually enjoying it! Glad you had such a good time! Even more glad you didn't get lost in those woods...<BR/><BR/>Thank you, Joe, for being such a wonderful host to my husband!

It's a totally different vibe!<BR/><BR/>Can't wait to hear which state is next!
