Hellooo!!!! Greetings one and all!
I am currently in pursuit of my latest of many crazy endeavors. Despite a chronic neck and back injury I have signed up for a half marathon in Paris France. Working around my injuries has been challenging but a good exercise in balance, discipline, and determination. Everyday is different and I've learned to be sure and take advantage of the moments when I feel good! I've had unrelenting support from the most amazing workout buddy. I've never realized so fully the roll that the encouragement of the people around us plays in our lives. I wouldn't be the person I am today without the people that are in my life!
I keep trudging forward hoping to tackle as much mileage as I can as the weeks pass. I think this has been one of my more challenging races I have prepared for. I can't wait to cross that finish line and look back on the journey that brought me there! :)
Well thanks for stopping in whoever is reading this and I will keep you posted as the weeks progress.... My check list to prepare for the trip is growing by the minute... mail in passport to have extra pages added since I filled it on the last trip, run, run, and run some more, find good cold weather running gear in Hawaii, do my physical therapy exercises, run some more, dream about Paris.. etc
