Great job, <b>Solar</b>! I can't say anything more than what's been said already, but to go 13 miles with tummy trouble - you're a better woman than I! And many others...<br><br>
And I don't have any sisters, but my 62-yo father beats me in races. You're not supposed to compete with your dad, right?, but no, I can't help the thoughts that I should be in front. It is what it is.<br><br>
You kicked ass...and your sister didn't do half bad either, but she's lucky to have you!

Great thread solar.<br>
I think about this often as well and thought I'd throw my $0.02.<br>
As <b>Maria</b> says, my running is all mine - it's a competition between me, myself and I and the three of us have some incredible battles. Save it for the race that counts and chalk this up as a training run - you really earned those miles so congratulations on a successful run. As a side benefit, you helped your sis pound out a successful race.<br>
I'm not a fan of lower GI issues either but they seem to be a fan of mine...the bastages.
