For The Love Of The Run

This morning I headed out for my first run since the marathon.  I was really looking forward to this run for a few reasons.  I was running with Mellisa, Kim, and Deb, I needed the run, and I was simply out there for the love of the run.  No time goals, no distance goals just running with friends!  In the end I ran 8.40 miles and felt great even though it was pouring rain for a lot of the run.  Today's run was thoroughly enjoyable and it reminded me why I started running again in the first place.  I run because I am passionate about it.  I run for my health.  I run to set an example for my children.  I run to spend time with my friends.  I run to meet new people.  I run for the memories.  And most importantly I was reminded today that I run for FUN!!

To share my passion with my children

To beam with pride when my daughter asks me to run a 5k with her

To finish what you started





To realize that you are in it together no questions asked

To spend time with  my friends



To help a friend achieve their goals

To shoot for the stars and have a story to tell

To meet new people

To keep running fun

For the love of the run!

Keep running, you're simply the best, and you inspire me!!
