Hello again everyone!!
Welcome to my new journal!!
When I last left my fellow WISHers, I had finished my quest to complete the WDW Marathon and was in limbo about where I should go or what I should pursue next. I mean, wow, it was a GREAT year...I dropped 30 pounds, completed many 5k and 10k races, finished the marathon, made some wonderful friends along the way and...dare I say...became a runner . It was all a bit surreal and I had to take some time to figure out what was next in the cards. I managed to run a 5k, run a fast 10k that qualified me for a time seeded group in the Peachtree and complete a half marathon. Most recently I even did something I NEVER thought I'd be able to do....place 3rd in my age group at a 5k event! (and yes, there were more than 3 runners in my division) See...I have a photo to prove it...(that's me behind the massive award )
What I have realized is that for some it's the challenge, for others it's the committment, for others the experience and for me...it's all about the swag!! I have tasted the fruits of swagness and display my two medals and one award proudly...but it's just not enough. I need to find the event that will reap the sweetest swagiriffic awards of all....yes...The Goofy Challenge Oh yes...I have the desire to hear the clanging around my neck as the weight of the medals guides my then hunchbacked self around WDW post marathon '08.
So please join me on my quest, feel free to comment at will...and I can't wait to get out there and see where everyone else is on their personal journeys. Sorry for the long absence, but it's great to be back with all of my WISH friends.
Oh yeah...i now have a non-running related blog...feel free to check it out too (link is in the siggie!)...(sorry for the shameless plug)
Until next time....have a great day everyone!
