dyk in case you can't tell from my glowing picture, LOL, I had a great run today
dyk I have wanted to be in a race for many years...like 20...but always chickened out...
dyk I haven't always been a runner..but when I was, I would get the race bug, but then be too scared to actually GO
dyk today I had friends waiting for me at the starting line and had my girls with me to watch the finish line and both of those things made all the difference in the world.
dyk alone, I probably still would not have done the race
dyk I was running with friends who were doing a walk /run, so when they walked, I would run up ahead and then circle back to get them, so that we could all finish together
dyk I told them that I was only there because they were there for me, so I would be there for them too
dyk we held hands as we crossed the finish line!!
dyk very emotional at some points as soldiers who have come back from afghanistan were running too, many missing limbs and using prostheses to walk/run.
dyk 7000 runners in this 5k and 7000 in the 1/2 marathon which started an hour later.
dyk this was a huge victory for me....to actually enter AND complete a race..
dyk I dropped off all the stuff we bought for patrick -
dyk his Dad's eyes got wide, lol
dyk we had a bunch of stuff - when added up, wasn't too much for me and my sister - but when you think they need that nearly every week - on top of his medicine, nursing copays, rentals on his equipment and that's all on top of regular baby stuff - diapers, wipes, clothes - OY!!!
