There is a lady in my neighborhood that is inspired by what I am doing and wanted to start walking with me. “Absolutely” I told her. I am honored that she even noticed me. You never know who is watching so whatever you do, do it with integrity. “Make every moment count” is my motto. She has really allowed me to appreciate the struggle I am going through to reach my goals.
As the miles increase, my body continues to endure the heat. My training schedule is getting intense, a lot different from where I was at this time last year. I decided in addition to my training, I will participate in a half marathon coming up in a few weeks.
Hurray! - 12 miles down and two weeks away from the Chicago Rock-n-Roll ½ Marathon. This will be my first ½ Marathon; I decided to run it for the experience and to set goals for the full marathon in October. I always encourage people to set goals before the main goal.
Be Blessed!
