Oh my, thanks for share, Mario! And wow, way to stick with it at PAs. Inspiring words of persistence that I needed this morning.

I love your line “you don’t have to be at your best to give your best.” It pretty much applies to any and all racing after age 50! Also — I love how the photo shows you and the other runner (I'm assuming it's Jamie Heilpern) matching strides, showing a wordless partnership running together.

Yep, that's Jaime! We spent 4+ miles in silent partnership. Not that either of us could have said anything, but nothing needed to be said, which is one of the beautiful things about this sport.
