Race day is coming....

I got my race packet today!!!! I got my t-shirt and my bib and I am SO excited for this race, the bib makes it SO real :D I haven't done much training lately but I'm still feeling good about this race. I also found out that 2 of my friends are running this race as well, so it'll be nice to have some familiar faces down there in the sea of people.

Today is 10 years since my mother passed away...10 years since I lost my best friend and felt like my world crumbled. Look how far I have come... my job, my schooling, and just my life in general. I know I wouldn't have made it without the rest of my family but I know I would have already been on track LONG AGO if she was still around. It's taken some time to get there, but she's been pointing me in the right direction.

When I saw my race packet today, I thought well this is a sign, a sign of how proud of me she is, a sign that I'm doing the right thing and a sign that the appointment I had yesterday was exactly what I needed to do. Sometimes I ask for so much from her and I get so upset when I don't get it, but then something like this happens and now well I can't stop smiling...

Thank you mom, for everything you gave me and everything you keep giving me!
