Give it up fo the runners

Today almost 200,000 people ran the Twin Cities Marathon. That's a lot. I know at least 2 of them and got to watch them at different points throughout the race. It was fun, they did a great job and both said they will never do it again. This might be true but I've heard this kind of statement before. It is often heard outside of delivery rooms after a marathon of a different sort, but then after the pain of the moment fades, perspectives change. This might have been a last marathon for some, but it might not too. Either way the task was Herculean and the effort was epic. Job well done.
