Update!

Ok so I haven't finished The Traveler but I did start Wizard's First Rule and I am liking it very much. I am at a boring part though, the Mud People. It's over 100 pages long and I am not getting into it very much. I am half tempted to skip it but I have like 20 pages left of this boring part so I guess I will suck it up and read on.

Also Alex Sharpe of Celtic Woman is leaving. She toured for 3 yrs and had fun but misses her family and I can't blame her. Everyone is sorta freaking out but they are handling it well. I am happy for her. I can't wait for the new girl!

That's it for now :D

It's not how long it takes you, it's how you finish!

So today my niece and I did another 5K race! It was the Girls on the Run 5K. This was my 3rd 5K run! We got to Independence Park around 8am. Checked in and then we saw Molly Barker, the founder of GOTR. I was in her very first trial GOTR program way back in 1996. She remembered me and was so shocked. I have to say that this lady is my Idol. After taking a picture with her, we set off to find SP's GOTR group. I swear there were like 1,000 Girls. They wore pink and the individual T-shirts were green.

So finally we started moving to the start line around 8:50. We finally started and it was sorta hard run this race because of all of the GIRLS! There were also Dad's running too! SP got very hot and tired around the 2mile mark but we would run and walk and someone said we had mile and a half left. We kept on running and walking and then we saw the finish line up ahead! I grabbed SP's hand and we ran the last 50yrds!

I am so proud of her.

It's not how long it takes one to finish a race, it's how you finish the race that is important. That is why all GOTR races are not timed. The important thing is that they finish and feel proud of themselves. I am very proud of SP and for every girl out there this morning! This was your DAY!
