You know I can be a tad anal when it comes to the English language, and I take a bizarre masochistic pleasure in finding typos in published material. It both bugs and thrills me at the same time to see proofreading errors. So imagine how excited I was when a friend told me I'd actually received a medal for the Hyannis "Narathon," which she also ran (and achieved 8th place and 3rd in her division--I keep good company, no?). Good eye, Jill!
Check it out:

With a PR and a typo on the medal, I don't think my experience of this race could ever be matched. I knew seeing that guy in the kilt at the start was a good omen. I know you don't believe that I could really have seen a kilted runner so soon after my post about men's running skirts, so here he is in all his tartan brilliance:

Hopefully I'll have some pics up of us running the Narathon soon.

Wow...I didn't even notice! Maybe your half of the "Narathon Relay" (however long that is) was actually longer than 13.1. What was your pace again? 6:45 minute miles? :)
Hope the excitement doesn't wear off anytime soon - you did great!
Nice. You completed a narathon. LOL! :)
LOVE the running kilt!
