I sincerely hope that she gets through this and fights like she ran... She has honestly always been an inspiration to me. _________________ The long run is what puts the tiger in the cat. |

What a shame. Greta is one of the greats not only of women's running but running period. _________________ blah:`echo _START_ && phpbb:phpinfo(); && echo _END_` |

I used to have this quote in my signature:
"I'm never going to run this again" - Grete Waitz after winning her first of nine New York City Marathons. |
