FINALLY! I made it through the week- I did not trip, fall, and break a bone, and I did not contract the Superflu. My playlist is made and all my gear is ready. I just have to get through tonight, get myself to the start of the race, and then….. RUN ALL DAY!
Thank you so much for all the kind comments this week. The support and encouragement is amazing- I can’t tell you how much it means to know that people are cheering me on from afar.
Lindsay left a comment sending thoughts of “persistence and joy.” Oooh! I have my theme for the race! Those two words are what the day is all about.
Legs hurt? Stomach feeling off? JUST KEEP MOVING FORWARD. There will be plenty of discomforts, but I’ll get those miles in if I keep moving. And, let’s not forget about joy- because if i can’t find joy in spite of the pain, then what’s the point?
HAPPY SATURDAY EVERYONE!!!
