I stopped my first run at 60 mins to stretch, especially my right leg, it was really tight. But after stretching I came back with a second run, which was faster. I did well and finished strong. All in all, it was not my best day, but I did my best. Hopefully after a good stretch tonight my legs will be back at 100% for tomorrow!

Jen,
I found this through your MOM who stopped by the flower shop today and I had to ask about you -- I have thought about you a million and one times and am so happy to see you're doing AWESOME!!!
Please write me back when you have time!!
LOVE YOU,

Jen - It is always a Great Day when you give it your BEST! You did what you could do and that is what counts.
You are in my prayers these days - you know I am a 'worry wart'.
Hugs to you dear friend - keep pushing. I attempted a 'run' today after all the talk on your journal at sparks. NOT GOOD..... I need to keep working up to that. NO biggy - because I gave it my best!
Jen - Some days are just tough! Ask any athlete in any sport. QB's get intercepted and running backs fumble. Sometimes a BB player will miss a free throw shot or lay-up. Baseball players strike out all the time. Some marathon runners
"Hit the wall" but come back the next year and do great. The main thing is to keep on, just like you did today. Get some rest, nutrition and get ready for a great day tomorrow. You are such an encouragement to us. Keep it up.
