Never Say Never

Never say never is what keeps me going and gives me the strength to get through the tough moments in life. I have always tried to look beyond what some think as limitations. I always think if plan A fails then there is B and of course there are 26 letters in the alphabet. Hopefully with goals and some thinking outside the box we can accomplish things we want to. So, I have lost my flip flops and have have found some walking shoes and hit the pavement. I have a training schedule in hand and I am determined to walk the half marathon. So far all is going well. Laney on the other hand did one mile with me and did a belly flop. I guess the heat is still too much for her. We are hoping for some break from the heat, but it has not stopped me. So far I am up to four miles in 70 minutes. Tomorrow will be five miles. I have finally made it past that slump where I feel exhausted after the walks. My endurance is improving with each walk. The last two weeks have proven to me that with determination and will power all is possible. I bless the makers of Advil, which has taken away joint pain and of course Laney who is always at the finish line for me. Every step I take is for my husband who has lived with Lymphoma for the past 15 years. I also walk in honor of my mother and cousin that lost there battle with Lymphoma. May they rest in peace as they have given me strength and purpose to accomplish great things.
