Today is my birthday.
I am now 44.
I am OK with that. I can say with 100% honesty and ZERO BS crap that I feel better at 44 than I did in all my thirties.
Thank you running.
Today is a good day but not because it is my birthday.
It has actually been a good week.
If you are a regular reader or one of my dear blogger friend...you know the last few months have been difficult for me.
I am beyond happy that the day I can write this post is here.
My husband got a job offer Monday and he accepted it.
Best Birthday present.
I am relieved and happy and grateful.
I want to thank all of you who left comments of support here.
I shared this part of my life because I wanted to be open and also because I knew it would affect my running in some way. I think I was also reaching out for moral support and many of you gave me just that and I am grateful to you all. Some of you even went out of their ways to send me private emails of encouragements and advices. THANK YOU.
Thank you for your kindness and support, it means a lot to me.
Please check the previous post if you have not already. I had a guest writer on the very important topic of how to prevent injuries.
First race of 2013 coming up tomorrow morning...a 10K to start this new year!
Wishing you all a fantastic weekend.
