Fantastic Friday

I have had two great days of running pain free, which has been few and far between lately. I have been plagued with injuries since March.  Broken tailbone, torn hamstring, blisters, lost toenails, runners knee, and lastly the ingrown toenail.  I am grateful for the last two days. 9 miles yesterday and 12 today, averaging an 8:13 mile.  

After about a year of contemplating whether or not I should attempt to cook my way through Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking I have decided to go for it. So I bought the paperback copy.  Does anyone know where I may be able to get a first edition autographed?




Academy sports is having their grand opening all weekend,ms cored a free pair of Crocs, which will be very useful for the pool.  Tomorrow is a free tackle bag. I will be there because I love to fish.  It is another favorite past time of mine.
So I am training for an Ironman, several marathons, and cooking my way through a cookbook. I will never say I am bored..
Why doesn't anyone comment? I would appreciate a comment good or bad 😜

Have a great weekend, keep sparkling🌌

IRONMAN fundraising, motivational people

The necessities for Ironman training are endless, so I created a GoFundMe page to see if any of my friends would be willing to help me accomplish my dream.  I am not asking for a huge amount, and even five dollars helps.
Please visit my GoFundMe page:   gofund.me/fumybc



I have had the opportunity to be surrounded by some very supportive and motivating people.  Jennifer  Chaffin is such a positive person nothing stops her.  I had the opportunity to meet several great Nashvillians while I participated in the Cumberland Plateau Stage race.  The people from Nashville were friendly, welcoming, and supportive.

My gratefulness has been that for the first time in a number of years I feel content and at peace.  I have been able to sleep, which for a number of years I could not because of the horrible dreams.  PTSD for me was horrible dreams of my time in law enforcement/crime scenes that played over and over at night.  While I was a police officer it never bothered me. The VA doctors finally found a combination of medications that were able to stop the dreams and I am thankful for that!!!



You can do anything!!!!
