running for a cause
merry christmas, happy holidays! i can't believe that christmas has already come and gone...it amazes me how quickly time is just flying by. and after a little hiatus from running over the holidays, i decided to take a quick stroll around my hometown this morning to start my training again. especially for a BIG running …

back at it…
well, if today's run could have a theme it would be "clear your mind." over the past few weeks, so many things have been going through my brain...all summing up to that key phrase, "am i doing enough?" or "am i enough?" this is something that i think about a lot, and i think it's …
