Marathon and Winter Driving

Congrats to all of today's Marathoners!!


Running a marathon is similar to embarking on a 26.2 mile winter drive through open country. You begin with sunny skies and clear roads. "This drive is going to be a fun. The forecast calls for winter driving conditions, the weather forecasters are wrong again."


Then around mile 6, or maybe delayed until 15 miles, the skies become overcast, yet the roads remain clear. Light to moderate snow now falls thru 21 +/- miles. Sometimes an piece of isolated black ice will spin your car around, perhaps into the ditch.


Without warning... solid ice covers the entire road along with whiteout snow conditions the last few miles. You grip the steering wheel, focus with every ounce of remaining energy and pray that you survive.


Much can change and occur over 26.2 miles!!

 We're proud of the perseverance you each displayed on your journey, today. Keep the Faith and Keep Winning!!
