"Have patience, and endure"

Much Ado About Nothing, Act 4, Scene 1

Nothing like a little Bill Shakespeare. The Bloggers ran well at the record setting Run the Woodlands today, check out Jon's post. Keith kept his promise and set a PR. I fought for a time under 23 minutes and came up with the goods (22:49). There is more in the tank when the weather is cooler. I'll be setting a PR at the Reindeer Run 5k this year. You heard it here first. I certainly need to step it up since Keith is right on my tail. Donna, Francesca and Gerlinde all ran their debut 5k's, so all posted PRs. As usual, Edwin led us all in and Jon was everywhere and knew everyone.

Gerlinde was quite concerned about the run before hand. She was thrilled afterwards, it was the first race she ran the whole way. Her prior races were 10k walk/runs.

"Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt." Measure for Measure, Act 1, Scene 5
