    Karen Karnis
    A runner for just over four years, Karen has already completed a marathon, two half marathons and a variety of 5k and 10k races. She describes her first marathon - the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon last September - as "a nightmare." However, she met a very interesting person in the process - a man named Sydney who was running his 152nd marathon! Although the race didn't go as well as planned for Karen or Sydney, he showed her that no matter how experienced a runner you are, you can still have a bad day. "Does that mean we shouldn't bother to prepare, or maybe just shouldn't bother at all? Of course not!" says Karen. "In the end, it is what we make it." We like her optimism!

    1. Forgot to discuss why is it you love running long distances so much! Some time you need a reminder! Especially in snow, sleet and sluhy slippery roads! LOL!

    8. Rockfalls95 – Good point, but I find “why I love running” comes so much more easily when I am *not* running, particularly in the slush!! LOL!

      Lisa – good ones! I’ll also add “Your in-laws” and “The stupid thing [insert celebrity here] did this week” 😉

    9. EndorphinBuzz – you’re right, I missed reward races, but a good number of those topics are about rewards 😉

      A common conversation during a long run in the wind and snow…
      Running Partner: Why do we do this again?
      Me: Pancakes?
