Inspiration - we all need it!

 

It's easy to get sucked into all the negativity that is brought to us from all the different sources of media.  Once you look beyond that though, there are the stories that truly inspire all of us. 

Our oldest daughter ran the Nichols Jingle Bell 5k run with her dad on Saturday.  Proud is an understatement for the feeling it gave Jay and I.  She is only 8, and really did not train for it.  She finished it, and now has a goal in her head to work towards training for another 5k so that she can get a trophy for her age group.  She is inspiring all of us to get out and exercise.  No more excuses for any of us. 

Another great inspiration was a runner who just completed a 5k celebrating his 90th birthday.  Plus, he just took up running at 80.  The motto "it's never too late" comes to mind.
