Your story made me cry. I am so proud of you for accomplishing something that so few people are able to do! Just thinking about it reminds me of all my fears. I keep on putting off trying to do those big "scary" physical things like a 5k. YOU have inspired me to try. You are incredible!

Wow, kids, this is a flash from the past! I actually read this to my nonfiction creative writing class at the beginning of the year.
Thanks for all your comments! You should check out how I did in 2007! My Second Tri.
I wonder how I will do in 2008!
