So Where Have I Been?

It’s been busy around here.

SO busy that even though I’ve tried to make time for running, I haven’t always had two minutes to rub together to blog about it.

Little bit by little bit, I’ve been trying to build up my MY STAMINA AND TIME.

I have been concerned that I just don’t have the distance for the GREAT RACE 2011 10k. But more than that, I’ve needed the running time to blow off the STRESS OF MOM HAVING BACK SURGERY on Sept. 17th.  Everything was up in the air until we could get that taken care of and I’m pleased to say, it is a miracle that it’s done and she is on the other side of the healing.

Then suddenly, I went out slow and IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES to realize, that perhaps, I really DO have the distance I need.

7.01 miles?

Let’s just call it 6.2 miles with all the G*P*S blips and glitches.

I’ll take it.

Slow and steady wins the race.
