You can do it and so can i

it's been an incredible four day weekend. I ran 25 miles this past week. Seems incredible to some. Not so much to others.

But to me, I felt as if I could do annnyyythiiiing!!!!

I was so impressed with meeeee.

I can do it!!

I laughed at times. "Look at meeeee.. i'm still running... six miles later..."

Lahhh-teee-daaaahhh!!! I would sing to myself!!

Six months ago, I was singing a different tune.

"No way".

I could run maybe a block.

But I couldn't run a lap... I knew that.

But now. I can.

I run. I run and I run and I run.

And it's amazing.

Now I know if you can set some goals you can meet them. I promise you that.

Just like my miles. If you push yourself a little bit each week, you'll be amazed at what you can do. I'm not kidding you!!

And I know you can do it. And you will.... and I will, too. Together. You and I.

Oh and I remembered a great quote by Wayne Gretzky, "A hundred percent of the shots you never take are going to be misses."

100% of those shots I never take are going to be misses! How true! Well.. I'm certainly shooting now. I know at any given moment I can change my mind and decide not to run. I need to really push myself to go beyond. Thanks Dan for your words.

And thank you Amber for dropping by and giving me a shout-out!! :O)
