Monument 10K
Yesterday I ran the Monument 10K here in Richmond. My brother convinced me to do it a few months ago, and I ran it with him and his wife Meghan. I should say him and my sister-in-law because she rocks. Afterwards we got a ton of free stuff, like Doritos, bananas (my fav), energy bars, free trips with JetBlue. That last one would be SWEET!
A thought hit me after the race while I was people watching. Every single person there, 20,000 runners, were all unique. They all had their own stories. Their own dreams, hopes, wounds. I had this urge to speak to every one of them and to take a look into their lives.
It was a quick thought, so that's really all I have to write ;-)

Ian,
I tried to find you in the picture, but couldn't. But 20 thousand men and women are a lot of people.
That is cool that you wanted to relate with each person in the crowd. I sometimes have that thought when running by someone on a trail. Behind the breathing, monotonous leg movements, and momentary pain...who are they?
