Really love it too.<br /><br />Yes still don't know what to make of it but it hit me hard probably because .......<br /><br />Actually don't know why it did but when I do I'll write something. Still, tragic event I feel for Kenya and all his friends and fans around the world.<br /><br />I'll never forget watching him race last year for the win in Chicago! An his coach reckoned he went into it at 85%. If that is even close to right we have lost a once in a lifetime marathoner!!Samurai Runninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12295160713705142193noreply@blogger.com
