Welcome!

Howdy! I'm new to this so bear with me. I'm an avid runner in NC and thought I'd start this blog to connect with other runners in NC as well as all across the country. I'm 43 and I've been running for about 20 years, more seriously the last 8. I've run 10 marathons and love the challenge of the long distance run. Running keeps me sane as well as healthy. I have a chronic illness, ulcerative colitis, that makes running interesting at times, but I'm not going to let it get me down. If you are a runner and are dealing with a chronic illness, it would be great to hear from you.
