I was much better at it when I was a lot younger.<br /><br />Walking fast is what I do best, but I admire those who can still enjoy running. <br /><br />Morgan Mandel<br />http://morganmandel.blogspot.comMorgan Mandelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10118929301591850918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-8988552744173770952010-12-09T15:12:31.974-06:002010-12-09T15:12:31.974-06:00Hi Kevin.

Does it work that way for you, Mark or are you focused on the race?Kevin R.

When writing toward a conclusion and attempting to tie up all the loose ends, it feels like the ending of a marathon. . .
