Janie will you be running in it? :-) That is NOT on my bucket list.
Liz, I can't climb a flight of stairs, so no :)
I'm in if you're in, Jane! -- Tanya in Montreal
Good morning Jane,
Wow..that is a huge undertaking for LA with all your traffic! They have planned this before and am sure is a successful event!
Ouyr Boston Marathon is coming up soon.....Kenya runners always win.....
Jane, I may run a one mile race...but would rather walk a 5-mile race....I do hate running/jogging.
Tanya, after you. Although on second thoughts, me first so you can pick me up after the first 100 yards.
Dorie, unfortunately it creates a nightmare if you want to go anywhere.
Barb, I think Kenyan runners win everywhere.
Rebecca, I really can't run at all. I don't know how these people do it.
It should be much warmer weather by then and lots of fun. I assume that you are attending... are you running in the marathon?
Judi, oh for sure, if you drive behind me in an ambulance.
Jane, if you run, I'll watch and cheer you on since these weary legs cannot take the strain. The entertainment along the route should be fun.
Leolinda, I will not be there, let alone running.
