Hey Eva,

I just wanted to say your post was so inspiring to me! I wrote down the books and am going to look for them on amazon tomorrow. I noticed you're doing the Rock & Roll marathon. I live in San Diego. I just moved to right on the beach in Del Mar...that is my motivation to get into running again (1 of them anyway)...it's just too beatiful to go to the gym instead. The La Jolla Half marathon went right past my door. Good luck to you...it seems like a really fun event!! There is a haf marathon coming up in August called America's finest city....I'd love to make that my goal...but I think 2.5 months might be pushing it w/my asthma...I don't think I've ever gone more than 4 miles!!
