The Difference Between my Mom and Dad

Littlesack: Hey, I signed up for the Marathon, did I tell you?

Dad: You go girl! (genuinely excited, and in the most feminine voice he can muster)

Mom: The WHOLE THING?! Are you kidding me?! Why would you DO that?!


...Can't you just be happy for me that I'm trying something I've been talking about for years?

I think there is always that fundamental difference between parents!

BAAAAAAHAHAHAHA! So funny. I love getting reactions like that.

I am excited for you!!!

I ran my first marathon over 2 years ago... Marine Corps Marathon.

2 weeks after running the Baltimore Half. Not exactly my wisest decision!

Running Baltimore made me fall in love with the city in a way I had never been able to before.

Watch for the Gummi Bear man!!! LOVE HIM. :)

Congrats and good luck!
