I could do that. On a bike. Maybe.
Speaking of the nature of excellence, my sister-in-law Sarah Dupré Healy ran her first marathon today—the Chicago Marathon. She finished seventeenth in the Women’s Race, which is not too shabby, given there were about 40,000 people running altogether. Conditions were windy and she suffered a lot over the last 10k or so, dropping a few minutes off what had been a 2:38 pace. But I think it’s just fantastic that she finished in the Top 20, which is why I’m telling all of you about it.
