I met Joann on the bus to the starting line of "The Other Half" back in October of 2007. We met on the course at mile 3 and stayed together until the finish. I used to be a lone runner and not really worry about having a buddy, but now I understand why people don't fly solo. It's such a great experience to have someone to laugh with, talk with, and complain with! Thanks Joann for the great run!
