I turned 37 today. I know some people don't admit their age. I truly don't care. It's a number.
I grew up in a small rural town, and there is a whole group of us with January/February birthdays. One friend in particular has a birthday 5 days before mine, and she made the statement, "I feel like I'm 27." So I told her I'd let her know how I felt on my birthday.
I woke up at 4:30 am, and by 5:00, I was on a 4 mile run. I reflected on that...at what point in my life would I have woken up at such an hour, let alone run 4 miles? Never. Not once.
So, age 37...so far, I like it, and I feel WAY better than when I was 27!
Supporting Love Without Boundaries
Join me as I share my trials and tribulations as a new runner. What started off as a goal to run a half-marathon (when I could barely run 3 miles) to raise money for Love Without Boundaries quickly became a way of life. I encourage you to follow along, laugh with me, and learn from my mistakes. Overall, just realize that I'm not out to win any races, but my goal is self-improvement. In the last 2 years I've lost 50 lbs and reclaimed my LOVE for life! And if I can do it, so can YOU!
Happy (belated) birthday Jolene! Wow, you GO girl!
