On my way to a half marathon

I took a three-year hiatus from running. I ran once in a while to feel like (and tell myself that I was) a runner but that was about it. Now I'm getting ready to run with a group of 5 people to push our friend Pino in a wheelchair for the Bavisela half marathon on May 4th. We practiced with him yesterday and I could tell he was thinking "Why the slow ones?" But he was a good sport anyway.

I am not feeling very in shape. I have done a couple of 10 milers but they were slow and torturous. Here's what got me to keep going, though. My friend Noel. He rode his bike from Wisconsin to China . That's what I think about when I am ready to whine about a couple of hours of running.

No biggy.
