Day 12 (8/16): 2.5 miles / 29:21

Wow - my legs ache!  Today was definitely better than yesterday, but I'm still struggling.  It was great to get out first thing in the morning while it was still cool (which is easy when your son wakes you up at 5:30).  And, while I'm certainly not setting any personal records with my pace, I do find that the longer distances are getting easier.  That's not to say that I'm not looking forward to the short run I have scheduled for tomorrow :)

Unfortunately, I don't have any life altering thoughts to share from today's run.  I truly just enjoyed getting out in the fresh air and thinking about all of the things in my life that I have to be thankful for.  A friend recently shared some terrible news about a friend of hers and I guess it's made me think a little more about all of the things I have and it was a good reminder to constantly appreciate those things every day.  I am so blessed to have my family and friends, my health, my son and my husband.  They give me so much joy and I don't know what I would do without their love and support.  I must admit, I'm one lucky woman!
