Life is Good

This morning I hoped online to see if there were official race times for Saturday's 5K. I was really just curious, I have an idea of my time but just wanted to know "officially". Unfortunately, race times aren't available. I decided to scroll down and look at all the names of the people who place. There it was... my NAME! In FIRST place! I was astonished, I was amazed. I am so proud! My goal was to finish, I thought it was possible that I would come in last. I prepared myself and my family for that my goal wasn't to be the fastest, my goal was to finish. Don't get me wrong, I've always thought it would be cool to win but I didn't think it was possible -- not on my first race --Not while I am still obese. All I can say is I really just feel so blessed and full of pure bliss.

I tried to take a screen shot but I just can't get it to post. So, if you want to see for yourself, and I know you do :) Open this link. If I had a camera I'd take a picture of the medal I got this afternoon!

Oh and today, I had another great workout with Clare. We ran. Life is good.
