This Sunday my daughter, ESH at Sweat Once a Day, and I are running races on opposite coasts. I will be running next to the Atlantic Ocean (top right) while she has the Pacific (left) in her sights. How cool is that! My weather prediction is:
Partly sunny. Highs in the upper 30s. Northwest winds 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph.
Her weather prediction is: Sunny. Highs in the 50s. Light wind becoming northeast 10 mph or less.
Em's race starts at 8:00 a.m. and my race starts at 11:00 a.m. (hopefully it will have warmed up) so with the time difference we will be racing at the same time! I am running a half and she is running a whole marathon but with the speed difference we will probably finish at the same time too! I love the thought of this happening. Thanks Heidi for making me more aware of it. I really hadn't put it all together.
Good luck to both of us! I love you, Em!

Thanks for the confidence mom, but I am not thinking I'm going to pull out a 2 hour (1hr and 59min!) marathon tomorrow.
Good luck! Can't wait to hear how it goes!

You're welcome!
That's even cooler that you're both starting at the same time too! I guess at the moment you're probably both about halfway through your races right now. I know your daughter is having AMAZING weather for her race. Perfectly clear skies here this morning. Hope yours is going well too.
This is great! Good luck to both of you!
That is very cool. I think it;s great that you guys get to experience running together. Even though you will be on opposite side of the US, it sill is neat knowing that while you are running she is too. Good luck to both of you.
Good luck you rock stars!
How cool is THAT!!! I will say I think she's faring better in the weather department but who cares, just have a blast!!
I LOVE your daughter....we totally bonded today. she is trong, smart, confident and a great conversationalist. She also has strikingly beautiful eyes and adorable dimples.. Just wanted you to know you did good.. I cant wait to run with her again.. And I am still AMAZED that she ran a pretty fast 15 with me and is going to do 26.2 tomorrow.
Thats awesome! I love that you guys are a mother daughter running "team." Kick butt today and I hope your daughter will do the same
