Coolest NSV Ever

  • I can really relate to this. My husband brought my son to a 5K I ran last year and when I crossed the finish line Jack threw he hands in the air and cried out "Mommy Won!" Several hundred people crossed the finish line before I did that day, but I certainly felt like I had won.

    Exactly!

    THANKS TO ALL OF YOU! You made me feel even better today! I'm almost halfway to my goal- and I'll just keep running til I get there! (and then run to stay there!)
  • This weekend I was hanging out with my 3 year old in the backyard, and he took off running and said, "Hey look! I a runner like Mommy! Mommy, can I race like you?"

    I seriously almost cried. I never thought that anyone would ever call me a "runner," especially the most HONEST person I know. To think that my kid watches what I do (he sees me leave and come back from runs, and comes to races too. My husband makes sure they come to each one to "cheer for Mommy") and a) thinks that it's cool and b) wants to do it too, AMAZING!!!

    I almost cried, too! That's wonderful!
