#42

Because I've been on running with caution for two years.
Because it scares me and makes me nervous.
Because it is a challenge.
Because I am afraid of the path...

I signed up for the Leavenworth Marathon...
October 4th, 2014
 
Because I'm ready to go back to being a runner.
Because it is exhilirating and challenging.
Because it motivates me and makes me stronger.
Because it reminds me who I am.
Because I turned 42 and this was the 42nd marathon listed on the Washington State website.
Because I can...and I will.

This race will not be about time.
In fact, I plan to train without a watch.
This race is about finishing.
This race is for my family and I....because we are strong, we are relentless and we are ONE.

    1. Come on Kerrie! I'm going for a slow and steady race...simply to say I've done another one without injury. I'd love to see you there!
