running

I have always wanted to run a marathon, but I've always come up with reason why I couldn't do it: too much school, too much work, I probably wouldn't be able to do it anyways, etc. I thought the closest I would ever get would be watching my friend run a marathon this spring. While I waited for him at the finish line, I saw three women cross the finish line together, hands held high in triumph. Each woman had on pink clothing a wore a head scarf to keep their heads because of what I guessed was chemotherapy.
