(Of course, there were loads of things that I could go on about that tried to bring me personally down BUT) trail running - and that race was REAL trail running - really made me remember I love running and not just running fast. I thought how you would love feeling that joy and setting aside your need to prove you can. I know you can do great at Boston! You don't need to worry about your pace. I hope you stay healthy and enjoy running such a big marathon just for you! I am way behind on blogs (and may not catch up ever) but I was thinking about you and I am glad to read you sound so hopeful again! *hugs*Shellyrm ~ just a country runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03822262051285512641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925925396644006805.post-23208040898478803122010-03-08T20:28:34.045-07:002010-03-08T20:28:34.045-07:00Thatta girl!!!!
