Life is a Hill

Lots has gone down hill for me lately. but I did run my first marathon about 5 months ago, after reading The Cool Impossible about 4 months before that. 3 days later I crashed my motorcycle and wound up in a wheelchair for a month and almost had 2 twos amputated, lost the girl I thought I was gong to marry, my company is in the red, and I can't find a job in my field my field or with any real responsibility or pressure. That being said, today is the first day I put on my full running gear and I ran 3 miles at a measly 7:40 pace. But I'm back at it, and things are going to get better. My family, friends, and running are all I need. If I can do it, so can you! Hope this inspire you to not give up...not yet! Share your story and battle with me!

Cheers,

Comment by Carolynn on January 13, 2016 at 7:52am: Yes, life is a hill. Up, down, up down, every minute, every day, so many things can change in a few seconds. In the midst of this constant upheaval, puttting on one's running gear and saying hello to the sun is a simple joy on which we can rely.
Best to you.
