My happy list this week is all about BLOOMSDAY! This year we were expecting sunshine and warm weather, and yesterday did not disappoint. What a great blessing after having bizarre weather leading up to the event. I was nervous all weekend with my "what-ifs" worrying about my injury but my husband did a great job smoothing over my fears. My childhood friend, Sarah, came from out of town and joined in on the fun.
I didn't get as many pictures this year because I was so focused on trying to finish the race and not giving up to walking the entire route. I didn't do much training for the race, hoping I could minimize any inflammation in my post tib tendon. And I definitely felt the lack of training as it was so hard to keep a jogging pace. But I definitely pushed myself like I've never pushed my body before and although I didn't do as great in my time as last year, it was so rewarding seeing that finish line and knowing I didn't give up! And Hallelujah - no falls this year!!
370 days until Bloomsday 2012!
