A Blast!

What a cool sight. The crowds were anxious, the mood was tense, and there was Pacheco in his Boston Jacket saying "Wow, I've never spectated a marathon before!", It's not always about you Joe!

Happy Mother's Day to all of the fine women out there who give us the chance to live on through our kids, fingers crossed that one of them likes to run!

The 5Th annual Mississauga marathon was amazing, I was witness to some amazing things, including some super fast performances. I was impressed by all, but very impressed by Theresa, who by all accounts was not having the best day early on, and yet found the way to bury her head and persevere. She did it! She is now a Marathoner, and her moment that she shared with me on the trails will forever be etched in my brain: Theresa said "This is really hard! I didn't know it was going to be so hard", all of this with a smile on her face.

There were many PB's and even some Boston times (I think), and the celebration must continue as you are all amazing!

Epsom salts, protein shakes and a big fat cheeseburger for all! Except for France, for you it is a big fat cinnamon bun!

Thanks for all of the smiles and true emotions today, without you this wouldn't be the best part of my job.

Congratulations.

Dr. Steve
