Becky and i jogged our 6 miles today. it was very hard. my ipod quit at 2.5 miles and i was ready to turn around and go back. but i had a mental battle in my mind and decided if i quit because of that it would be easier and easier to think of more reasons not to do it. i'm so glad we hung in there. it really isn't that bad without the ipod and we did it. while we were out running a cross country team passed us. i immediatly thought of you natalie and how much running you have accomplished in your life. you are awesome to do so well. You keep me going to think that my daughter been doing this for years. love you all. mom
