To recap what I’ve been thankful for so far:
1) My cat
2) No more election campaigning
3) Being able to afford to buy food
6) Good friends
That’s an interesting assortment of ideas/stuff I’m thankful for (or grateful, depending). So what about today? I wanted to say fall weather again, because the weather is just gorgeous today. But that’s already been done!
I’m thankful for my LEGS which took me on a long run around Tower Grove Park. I ran for about 1 hour ten minutes with one small break in the middle. I ran nice and slow, but I RAN the whole time. It was over 5 miles.


I was so proud of myself for running so much. Seriously, it’s been a big struggle to just keep running, and I know last week’s race with Jen was a big turning point for me (we ran the whole 5k). Today I knew I could do it, plus I planned to take a break about 45 minutes in to try a GU, which is a food thingy.

I bought a sampler pack from that company (today’s was a free sample from the Lewis and Clark half marathon) so I’ll have some sampling to do. I feel like a real runner!! Thank you LEGS for carrying me through today!!
