Sentiment to Soreness (Guest blogger edition #2)

I'm exhausted. Seven viewing sites and 26.2 miles later, I'm exhausted! In the afternoon that followed, I took a nap while Nate watched football. Today I went to work barely functional. The dazed look in my eyes only proved to coworkers I was not ready to face the tasks ahead of me. It was in those slow moving, difficult-to-focus moments I began to understand how much Nate completing the marathon and accomplishing his goal really meant to me. I hadn't realized emotionally invested I was.

Well, today his legs are sore, and my brain is sore. But I didn't run, I watched. So tonight I not only applaud my man, I also make sure the blogging gets completed because he couldn't get to the computer - even though it is a laptop.

Way to go Nate!
