Running is such a simple act - something that we have been doing since we learned to walk . . . and yet at this stage runnng is such a powerful act. It is something that provides us power, fitness, escape, cleansing, challenges, friends and much, much more. Enjoy training for the Disney 1/2 marathon. Hope the weather up here cooperates and you can get some good runs in outside. Clean . . . that is a great analogy – I love it.

Nothing to worry about, I'm still here doing well and working out. For some reason I just have been so motivated to write about it. Don't know why. Anyway, I glad you seem to be doing well and have put forth some big goals for next year. That's exciting stuff. Beth, thanks for the note.

You can do whatever you want, and I think that is refreshing. It sounds like 2011 will be a great year = the half iron is fantastic! I can't wait to follow the journey! Clean slate is good.

I like your attitude and I am sure you will reach all your goals. I had a similar experience in 2007 I knew that I would have had the second and final surgery one year later but I planned everything how if it didn't exist. Good luck Beth. I agree, clean is the right word.

After a certain amount of exhaustion, for lack of a better word, there is no pretense. and that's what I love. I also love that you are plowing ahead with some awesome plans for 2011. If planets align, maybe we'll meet at Marine Corps. I'd love that too! I could not agree with you more about running being cleansing.

I always enjoy reading your posts because they are so (what you see is what you get and how you feel is what you say) if that makes any sense:) In short, you are honest and always positive. You will always try to find the sunshine in every negative and I love that about you. Clean slates are full of hope and excitement....it is the possibility of being better than before...and I don't just mean faster...I mean the whole package. You have experienced something so powerful and it will change the way you look at things! You are going to do so well at Disney and I wish you the best of luck in your training:) I have not been on a run in two weeks. We have had so much craziness in our lives over here. I know that my personal fitness is not where it should be. I will also be starting out with a clean slate. My first run will be tomorrow...an easy slow 5 miler:) Take care Beth!
