Alex and I ran the Human Race Half Marathon today. He suggested that I compose my poem on the trail by contributing a word each mile (plus one at the start and end). Here are the words that summarized each mile for me.

Mom says:
Very clever. Hugs to your pacer in the literal and figurative human race.
AEOC says:
Thanks so much for bringing the boys. Mile 11 was the perfect place for a pick-me-up!
