Tell me about it being hard - I use to run, I mean really run and now I am slowly dragging behind my mom...my MOM. <br />You can do it and I am inspired by your determination to not give up also. I am running the San Diego half and keep saying that I am just thankful to get the chance to run it, but secretly I have a goal and am really hoping to not only hit it but surpass it :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03210820513382353417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565266366481013224.post-81293019973194475482011-04-26T16:46:28.131-07:002011-04-26T16:46:28.131-07:00Tearing up thinking of you doing the 4th Wendy.

I quit when I had some complicated pregnancies. I tried to start up again afterward. I ran one mile and decided not to run anymore. I walked home and have been walking every day since. I truly enjoy it and look forward to this time of my day.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03441855736336430014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565266366481013224.post-42105903865568179472011-04-26T15:29:01.454-07:002011-04-26T15:29:01.454-07:00There is nothing wrong with being in the back of t...There is nothing wrong with being in the back of the pack. When I went through FBI training, I was always at the back of the pack. I know the feeling. Finishing the race is what is important and I'm so impressed that you went and did an extra mile on your own. Keep up the great work!NikDuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00339827779693006419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565266366481013224.post-29099494413451365502011-04-26T12:14:10.016-07:002011-04-26T12:14:10.016-07:00SO proud of you!!!!

I used to always be the one at the back of the pack picking up the rear. Mostly because I felt comfortable there not being influenced by anybody else. Only one word of advice, be careful not to over-do it in the beginning! Trust me, you won't even know you've gone too far until its too late. be safe and good job!Scullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05745442527137426283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565266366481013224.post-8485126269407139012011-04-26T09:08:16.731-07:002011-04-26T09:08:16.731-07:00I was worried when I saw you pull over on Saturday...I was worried when I saw you pull over on Saturday. Was something wrong? Were you okay? Did you need help??<br /><br />Then I saw the tears and my stomach dropped. But when you told me while choking back tears that you were going to run another mile..... I was so proud of you! <br /><br />It took me 6 months of "running" to get up the nerve to run my first 5K. A few more months before I pushed myself past 3.1 to 4 miles and only just this month before I pushed past 4 into 5+ miles {I'd better pick up the pace if Iplan to run 13.1 in October!!!} <br /><br />YOU..... You ran more than a 5K and about halway to a 9K in ONE DAY!!! I am so proud of you!! A.A. Milne must have written this about you.... "You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think."<br /><br />You WILL leave an impression greater than Mother and Sugar-Checker. You are showing your girls that you {they} can do anything that you set your mind to as long as you push!<br /><br />YOU are AH.ma.zing!<br /><br />I am so happy we are on this journey together {you know why}.<br /><br />Hugs Mama!!Shelbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11208190495603591696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565266366481013224.post-27908804735259959642011-04-26T09:01:22.880-07:002011-04-26T09:01:22.880-07:00Woohoo!
