A New Day

My idea when I first decided to begin blogging was to allow others (who might be interested) to follow my progress over the next months as I prepare for another 5K. Yes, I consider myself a "runner". I have been running since 1990 and have several races behind me; over the past 3 years my goal has been 2 races a year. It was after a very long period of illness that I truly appreciated running or even just walking as this was difficult for me then.

My idea now is to continue to blog even after the race in October. I have not only set a new personal goal for myself in this training period, but also in my personal life. "I want to have fun"! Need to remind myself of this often, too.

There is a great quote (I hope I get it right), but am not sure who said it: "If you always do what you've always done, then you'll always get what you've always gotten." That is my new motto.
