1 month

Saturday marked 1 month since I signed up for CrossFit.  I marked the occasion by running an entire - non stop mile at the Elisa Suarez Memorial run.  Elisa was a dear friend of mine that I introduced into Cross Country as a senior in high school (she was a sophomore) then convinced her to go run at TLU, where she was outstanding.  She was a victim of a hit an run accident as a sophomore at TLU and passed away.  She was the most motivational person in the world, and to actually be able to RUN at her run really means a lot to me.  She would be so proud of me working hard.  I hadn't run around Marshall since high school - I've walked it a few times, but have not run it since she died.  I felt her with me.  I felt her telling me that I could make it to the next stop sign.  I thought I was motivated before, but I couldn't even sleep this weekend I was so excited to go grocery shopping & go to CrossFit today.

1 month down... So many more to go, and I CAN'T WAIT!  Posted a picture of me and Susie - another great friend of mine from both Marshall & TLU.  She does so much work each year to get the run going & keep Elisa's spirit alive.
