As I ran my 6 miles today, my thoughts were never far away from the tragedy in Boston. I keep thinking about how traumatic it would be to have run 26.2 miles and be faced with the horror those runners and spectators faced.
On the same hand, I was thinking I won't let this stop me. I've begun my journey and I'm not stopping now. The joy of running will not be overcome by a cowardly terrorist. Oh, sure, it's kind of scary, thinking what if it happens again...or happens at a race I attend? But, no way! They won't stop me. I'm in pursuit of a goal and I'm not stopping for anything or anyone.
Today was one of the first times I ran all 6 miles - all for you, Boston.
