I doubt I'll ever even run a marthon in my life, so these people are pretty impressive.

I'm pretty sure she has done an ironman as well. I don't think there is anything she hasn't done.

Some of the things she said she did for training was crazy, like running around town with her car windows up and no air just to get used to the heat. The A/C in the house broke, she never fixed it... etc.

Amen sister!!!
