If you haven't seen this before, watch it for great inspiration. Before
the 1984 Olympics, women weren't allowed official entry into marathons.
The belief was their constitutions were too weak, and the effort of
running a marathon would be harmful. Joan Benoit proves everyone wrong (as did every other female marathon finisher that day.
I didn't believe until now, but I am a marathon runner. I am an athlete. I am unstoppable. I am enough.
With many 5K races under my belt, a 10K, & a 1/2 marathon I definitely feel confident that I will be able to complete my first full marathon this coming March 2010. Watch me.
