Welcome to the Mighty Marathoners

Six years ago two of my daughters and several of their friends decided to run a marathon with me.  All of them were first timers to the marathon; it was my eleventh one.  As we trained, we sent emails back and forth updating others with our progress.  As the excitement grew to race day we included notes to the support team that grew around us.  We needed a name for ourselves and thus we became the "Mighty Marathoners".   Many years later and lots of runs behind us, we still need encouragement.  The group email just does not seem to work anymore.  This blog, hopefully, will provide a way for us to easily communicate with others, giving information about upcoming runs, training programs, race results, and anything else we want to talk about about.  I hope to set up different sections for results, photos, bios, and who knows whatever.  It's for both runners and supporters.  Blog on.
