The Run

I did it! I ran the Broad Street Run - all 10 miles!


This was one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had in my life. With some training, great friends to run with & support at the finish line (& in spirit) I accomplished it. Definitely challenging but unforgettable. I wished for rain & it poured. I prayed to finish & I held hands with amazing women as I crossed the finish line. There was support in every step we took. There were bands, people, & signs in the city of love. Nothing but love today.

Recently, I’ve heard that your body can do 13 times more than your mind. Today, someone had to remind me & I didn’t have enough breath to say what I thought but I smiled & thanked them later. I would not have completed if it weren’t for Lindsay, Sherry & Marry K. These women were my inspiration to me & I hope I continue to run farther and faster. With positive thoughts & a stubborn mind you can do anything you truly want to do.
Smile.
Life is wonderful. Embrace it.
Much love & thank you.
