So, I will start training for a half marathon next month. YEP! I had such a wonderful experience with Team In Training
last year, that I just had to do it again. I love the cause and the great people
I have met along the way. Team In Training has taught me so much - Mentally,
spiritually, and physically. Personally, I learned to dedicate runs to those
that cant run to help me get through tough runs. I learned to push myself and
dig deeper for that inner strength and just go for it. I met (online) a
wonderful mom and her son that was battling leukemia last year, and he was just
tired and went to be with our Father in Heaven last August. He is still near and
dear to my heart. Something just brought me close to them and I will ALWAYS run
for RYAN!
I started my morning off planning on getting in a run, but
my lower back and hip area has been bothering me. A weird adjusting pain. Once I am standing, I am fine, but to change positions from siting to standing or standing to sitting, its like I have to take about 20 to 30 seconds to adjust slowly. So this morning, I sucked it up, prayed before
I went out the door and off I went. It was a beautiful morning out! Kind of
chilly too. My plan for 3 miles turned into 4 and I loved every minute of
it!
It's going to be a great day and I hope that you all enjoy your weekend and extra day off tomorrow. Also to remember why we are off! I am truly grateful for all the sacrifices that were made for us and the ones that are continually being made. We are a blessed nation!
Much Love,
Krissy
