Major thanks to the blog!

[Chris de Vos]

Been seeing some fantastic race results in the past month (1:31 HM, a 3.5 minute improvement, and 18:10 5k, a 1:54 improvement), and just wanted to say thanks for hosting the site! Helps give perspective, in addition to making it easy to track progress. Looking forward to seeing more improvement as I actually get consistent training in!

I have to agree--this blog has inspired me immensely.  I stumbled on to it when I had just quit smoking and wanted to run a 5k in less than 30 minutes.  Then something unexpected and amazing happened.  Sasha and the rest of the blog somehow planted the idea in my mind that I could do much, much more.  I took the idea and ran with it, literally.  20 months, two marathons, one BQ, one marathon win, and 3 half marathons later I am still running with it! There are no words for my gratitude.
