individual and collective, determination.
dear jen: coming from a family of marathon runners, i am so excited for you to run your first marathon in new york city on sunday. wishing you much ease and many smiles along the way. no doubt you have learned a lot about yourself during this process - revealing hidden gems of strength and determination. enjoy the moments and know that you will not be alone in your excitement and fear. run with and not against. you will do great! xoxo.maura
I have been overwhelmed and humbled by the support, encouragement and kind words that I have received from friends, fellow tumblrs and strangers during this whole “Jen got crazy and is running a marathon” bit.
Thank you to everyone for following along on this little ole’ blog and keeping me in positive thoughts all along the way; it means more to me than I can express and mentally is why I’ve gotten as far as I have.
Virtual hug to Maura for saying what I needed to hear tonight. I wish you could be here!
GO JEN GO!
