Being present

Running in 70 degree weather today made my 12 miler so much more enjoyable.  It was definitely nice to run and see puddles of water and mud....not dust!  I have about 4 months or so till the big day, so I feel good on my mileage right now.
So to treat myself for my hard work, I am enjoying an nice iced coffee at Catalina right now.  Hmmmm good stuff.

If anyone is interested in joining in Team CanCare for the Run for a Reason program, please let me know.  They have spots available for 5K, half marathon, and full marathon.  It is such an exceptional organization and I would love to get more people involved in support those diagnosed with cancer.

I recently came across this quote and I feel that it speaks volumes.  My runs, especially the long ones, give me time to think about my life.  Mostly what's about to happen or what recently occurred, but I am challenging myself to just be in the present.

"What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment.  And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new.  Right now."

So here's to being present and making everything new.  Thank you everyone for your support!
