  2. oh, i am so envious. i love road trips (i guess you guys do too). i always wanted to go on a long road trip. maybe we should go together on a long road trip around europe next summer. waddaya say?

    has it been 10 years already? i guess, it has been. i remember meeting you about 15 years ago in a country that does not exist any more.

    oh, the marathons. i was really close to running half-marathons a few years ago, but i never did. maybe it is not too late. are you going to try and run again?

  3. We met in 1995 when I was here with the Kry and Vista. Yeah- I remember all that because you wrote a nice letter to my dad.
    I don't have time to put in the miles needed to prepare for a long race nowadays. I'm lucky to go out and get a run in at all...but I do need to manage my time better. There is a fall 1/2 marathon in Kassa...but I have a goal to run the Kékes csúcsfutás someday, which is 11 km. First year I found out too late and wasn't prepared in the 5 weeks, last year pregnant, this year we had an outreach the same day... So, we'll see.
    I have no idea how we can do road trips with Nate-he freaks out if he is tied down for more than 3 hours; so we'll see on that one too.
