I love your colored printers!

While over 25,000 people were doing this:
including Lance Armstrong (in yellow on the right)!I was eating this:
That is a deep-fried turkey people, and it is not even Thanksgiving. YUM.

It was fun cheering people on and seeing exhausted people smile, or people who were walking start running again in response. Having done a 50-mile (3-day) fundraising walk, I totally understand what physical exhaustion means and how uplifting it is to have people cheering you on. If you ever run a marathon, write your name in large visible letters so that people who do not know you can cheer for you! Otherwise the following takes place:

KHC's friend: GO H.P.! I LOVE YOUR COLORED PRINTERS!

If I ever run a marathon I will hear things like. "Did he leave a next of kin note on him?" or "I don't think they have paramedics placed anywhere in the first mile!!"

I totally admire marathon runners. Hmm, that could be great inspiration for training--imagining all that cheering!

Are you sure you didn't mean to type "colored sprinters?" Just thought I'd ask.

I've never had deep-fried turkey. I'd like to try it someday.

Mmmm.. deep fried turkey. So incredibly juicy and flavorful.

I love the HP cheer. I love their color printers too. ;-)

Ron, just don't forget to put your name on your shirt so people will say, "Did Ron leave a next of kin note on him?"

Aurora, unfortunately there would be less cheering during the training!

Spark, that's a good one!!!!

Danielle, it is amazing how juicy the turkey is. Even the white meat was moist!
