Second, it's week three of the running group. Woo hoo! I've had one runner drop out and one runner join, so we're still going strong! Tomorrow is the second group run and I'm excited to get out there with these mamas. They are doing great. More than just being proud of their progress, though, I'm proud that they are developing a love of running and that they are seeing themselves in different ways.
They've sent me emails and notes in their training plans and I love reading what they have to say:
"I can't believe that I actually like running!"
"[My run] felt good!"
"I can't believe I can do it and I'm so glad I decided to join your running group!!"
Yay for new runners! Yay for new runners enjoying running!
I love their excitement, love that they are proud of themselves and love witnessing them realize how strong they can be.
I posted this on my FB page and I think it is particularly appropriate for today so I'll share it again:

Push on!
And have a great week :-)
