We form brief, intense friendships with strangers on the course who we'll never see again. We lose our priggishness about germs and other people's sweat. Life gets distilled down to its most basic elements, and somehow instead of becoming survival-oriented brutes, we find we are able to open ourselves up to love and to being loved in ways that the couch potatoes will never understand.<BR/><BR/>Or maybe we just get kinda stupid toward the end. LOL!<BR/><BR/>Great race, girl! You have the heart of a champion and you deserve to be proud of yourself!Ann (bunnygirl)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04938134750150653386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402707.post-1158459817576327562006-09-16T21:23:00.000-05:002006-09-16T21:23:00.000-05:00Aargh... thanks for taking me on that roller coast...Aargh... thanks for taking me on that roller coaster with you.
