Oh my, what have I gotten myself into.....for years Bob ( my hubby) has been trying to get me to exercise in any way ,shape, or form....my answer was always "you're kidding, right?" I'm too old, my bones hurt, my body aches, etc,etc,etc. then the least one of my children I never thought would get into this sort of thing became a runner... the "DIVA" ( running Jayhawk) has become an inspiration and OOSG has really helped me to understand I may be aging but not getting old!!
On our last vacation we met a couple,she was 72 and had suffered a stroke 10 years ago ( 62,my age today) and for the first time I realized how much more difficult things could be and so here I am on the eve of my first 5K WALK, a little nerveous, a little excited and a lot of wondering "can I really do this?" And so, tomorrow at the crack of dawn (did I mention I don't do mornings) I will be up and out the door praying to survive the next few hours!!
Funny how God always seems to throw a little humor when we really need it....when I picked up my packet tonight I found my Bib number 6969.....awful and unbelievable but also terribly funny!!! so with my first step tomorrow morning will be a big thank you to Dr. Mike and the Diva....till tomorrow.................Granmommy on the move

One foot in front of the other. You'll do great! :)
Yeah!!! You have a blog now!
You're going to do GREAT!
IF my mother got the significance of your bib #, she would never admit it nor would she have a clue about blogging about it. You are quite the Granmommy :D :D :D
That's great that you're running blogger now. My mom started running a year and a half ago and she hasn't looked back. Best of luck!
