Thank You W.I.S.H. Team

While searching for an answer to a particular question, I googled my way to these boards just a few days before the marathon weekend. Before I knew it I had spent four hours reading many, many posts and remarking at the wonderful supportive nature and the well reasoned practical advise.

As I ran and walked my very first marathon, it was impossible to miss the bright yellow machine of W.I.S.H. supporters clanking wildly on cowbells and cheering like we were at the front of the pack and not, as it turned out, at the middle of the back.

I know they didn't know me and I only knew them from the posts I had read but, I found myself looking out for them, using their enthusiasm to push me farther than I could push myself. So thank you W.I.S.H. team for allowing me to feed off your energy and giving me the strength to complete what ended up being a very physically and emotionally tough day.
