Sorry you did not make your goal. But those folks at Boston are clueless if they don’t think you deserve to run their PRECIOUS marathon. OK maybe I think the Boston Athletic Association is a bunch of snobs because I have no chance at qualifying. But I’m sure you will. In the mean time lets plan on doing the golf course loop a couple of times in January. You know Myrtle Beach is right around the corner…. Dean –

I was planning the next race as I ate the fine post-race food at Kiawah. Your confidence humbles and inspires me. Rick, I am soooo in for the "Spring of Pain." This time emphasis on more mental toughness, and meticulous pre-race nutrition. All,

Rick, I am soooo in for the “Spring of Pain.” This time emphasis on more mental toughness, and meticulous pre-race nutrition.

If it's any consolation, count me in for "Rick's Spring of Suffering". Tim Dean,

Even if you do everything right, she still has ways to reject you. Take the next few weeks to lick your wounds and then let's start making plans for "Rick's Spring of Suffering." Dean,
