Prologue

This is a story about a journey that started maybe several years ago. Maybe it started when my parents made me, I don't know. But I didn't know of it until a few years ago. Maybe earlier, maybe later. At that time, some things happened that seemed to be a turning point for me. Now... where was I five years ago? Probably right where I am now, in bed with my laptop on my lap. I must admit that I have spent more time on the internet than most people would consider healthy. And far more time than the average lady of my age would do. But that is not the story I am going to tell now. I am going to tell about my journey from being just another average wife and mother to being a marathon runner.  And a mother.  And then an ultra maraton runner.
