Looking on the Bright Side

A little while ago, I received an encouraging comment on my race report from the Run for the Oaks in 2007, and it was fun to reread my excitement over finishing in 46 minutes and change! I totally missed the Run for the Oaks last year due to a broken nose, so I hit a course record this year--in the rain! Eventhough I wish I'd gone faster this year, it's nice to be reminded of overall progress. The comment poster for the two-year-old race report is anonymous, but I thank him or her for the encouragment--and the neat reminder that running is, indeed, a journey.
