So much fun to read!<br /><br />My most unique distance was the Quarter Marathon I did earlier this year. They had a half marathon, too - but I didn't feel ready for 2 halfs in 2 weeks, and a quarter was just too unique to pass up!Fruit Flyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10747205899650070873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3694321076420245108.post-29258291381420295492011-10-12T03:35:43.050-07:002011-10-12T03:35:43.050-07:00Congratulations!

Great photos of the bride to be! I've done many unique distances measured in km because here in SA that's what we use. 15km, 16km (10 miles), 20km, 25km, 32km (20miles), 48km, 56km, 60km, and lots of distances higher than 100km in 12hour, 24 hour, 48 hour and 6 day races. I do lots of trail races as well and there the distances are usually unique.Johannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17588120934444485158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3694321076420245108.post-23353860660968914272011-10-10T07:08:12.217-07:002011-10-10T07:08:12.217-07:00You look great with your costume.

Hubby must be proud of you for the finishing time and the costume too.<br />Here the distances are various between the half and the marathon but now the 30 km are becoming popular because useful to prepare the marathon.Black Knighthttp://cavnero.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3694321076420245108.post-68875829719857412602011-10-09T18:38:05.533-07:002011-10-09T18:38:05.533-07:00Great job!

However, this year I raced two distances I never had before, 20K and 15K. Actually, I'm doing another 15K in November.Leah Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12080296620566428888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3694321076420245108.post-43966884851176025092011-10-07T17:29:27.574-07:002011-10-07T17:29:27.574-07:00Not that my opinion matters, but I REALLY don'...Not that my opinion matters, but I REALLY don't think you should change your blog name - it's perfect on soooooo many levels!!!!!

That would have made the training runs a bit more exciting!! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3694321076420245108.post-11677605390461439882011-10-07T13:19:36.031-07:002011-10-07T13:19:36.031-07:00You looked amazing!
