I went to Tempe to see Heather run the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon, and meet her new beau, Mike. He's a super nice guy. Floyd, Ivan and I cheered them on between miles 14-15 and spent the weekend hanging out with them and their posse of Chicagoland pals.
Heather and Mike both broke previous PB (personal bests), both qualifying for the Boston Marathon in April. How could they not with a Boston Terrier cheering them on?
After the race, Heather generously gave me her practically new totally kick-ass running shoes, to replace my cruddy old duds, and with them I've started running again. Just a few miles twice a week. No plans for any marathons, though!  PS- She luuuuvvs IIIIIIII-VAAAANNNnn!
