Mental Toughness From Court to Course

Congratulations to Catherine Taaffe, who competed in the New York half marathon yesterday in the 65-69 division.  Catherine was tested after she fell around the 6 mile mark and sprained her hand.  However, she demonstrated awesome mental toughness by completing the remaining 7.1 miles.  She is probably the only runner who has a swollen hand…
