No problem, Rick... a bit of encouragement and publicity is the least we can do here, and I'm sure that several of us will do a little bit more than 'the least'.
It goes without saying that I'm impressed with your physical resilience this month, but strangely perhaps, I'm even more impressed by, and interested in, your mental strength. Even before we do a first marathon, we all know and expect that we will feel physically exhausted when the race is over, but I was quite taken aback - and continue to be - by the emotional hit that a marathon turned out to be. It can be an almost paralysing experience in the short term. The feeling is fantastic of course, but it can be sort of overwhelming. It's this that impresses me about your target this month. Even 2 in a row is a great achievement in relation to the standards and abilities of most of us here, but 4 in a row seems almost incomprehensible. I can't really take in how hard it must be to pick yourself up mentally and turn up the following weekend for yet another one of these darn things.....
When it's all over, I would really like to hear about this aspect of your month. In the meantime, all of us here (I'm sure) wish you all the best for the final races, and very well done on raising money for such a good cause.
Once again, if people haven't read the reason that Rick is doing this, I urge you to visit
http://www.neverdieeasy.org/. This isn't an ego trip, it's something that I know from private correspondence that Rick has been strongly affected by, and wants to contribute something positive to.
