Real quick, cuz I gotta run. In less than an hour, my good friend and client Tammy will start running her first ever marathon in St. Charles. She's a bit nervous but has put in the work and is well prepared. Incidently, she's run no more than 13 miles in any training run, relying on the daily WOD at CFWC and 2-3 CFE WODs per week, and favors a Paleo/Zone diet over a traditional high-carb endurance athlete's diet. Come out and watch if you get the chance. If not, please send out some positive energy to keep the wings at her heels.
More later

MARATHON UPDATE
Woohoo! She finished, and she was awesome! We had the opportunity to cheer her on with signs made by the kids and some profound jackassery (yelling like complete idiots) at several locales during the race, and each time she had a big smile on her face. She had a little trouble around mile 18 with stiffness in her calf, but she stayed strong and when it all shook out she'd finished her 1st marathon in 4:18:31. Way to go Tammy! We're all proud of you.
