"I'm thinking that I might be able to get a six mile run in-or I could at least get 25 miles in on the bike." This would be a typical statement uttered from the mouth of Wendy Sones Leon. What I didn't mention is that she had already done sprints for a few hours on the shoot, swam 3/4 mile in open water, and did 15 50's in the pool hours after that. I must admit that in my 20's and single, I was guilty of doing 3 sports in a day, but in my 40's or in her case 50's-that's just incredible! She has a drive that is unparalleled. Also, this late bloomer to the running world, qualified for Boston during her first marathon, and completed Boston's challenging course marathon in under 4 hours! Did I mention that she was injured while doing so? Wendy has true grit, and all the while, she does it with a smile reminiscent of a child's!
Thank you Wendy, you're amazing!
