Marathons and Mainely Running

Yesterday was the day and was it ever a hot one! Kristy ran her 1st marathon on a day when the high reached 83 degrees in Western Maine. For us, that's stifling especially considering the fact that on Kristy's long runs it was probably never much warmer than 60 degrees and it was usually raining or snowing.

Neither here nor there Kristy did it! And so did our very own, Amy, and our friend, Emilie.

Jen and I, along with Pam who ran a very strong 15K today, provided what I would call stellar road support (if I may say so myself). Lots of driving, cow belling, sign waving, water refilling, banana peeling, pretzel handing and emotional supporting makes me one weary girl. No complaints here though. I didn't run all 26.2 miles.



That said, if you think you might want to go the distance with us (any distance not necessarily 26.2) and if you are a member of the Bangor Y register for the summer session of our Mainely Running class . Read more about the class here and then call the Y at 941-2808 or visit the Bangor Y's website to register today!

We hope to run with you soon!
