Never Given..Always Earned

Never Given..Always Earned

The Disneyland 10K and Half Marathon comes to an end. We worked very hard for our success (and the B.L.I.N.G!)  I’m so proud of Erin, and of myself 🙂    It would have been sooo easy to quit every time it got hard.  And Oh..Was..It..Hard!   OFTEN!!   But perfection was never our goal.  Becoming better than we used to be….is e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g!  That’s the only goal that matters!!

Our Love goes to Caitlin and Peter for their support here in California.  More Love goes to family and friends back home and around the world.  We were strong this weekend….because of all of you.   Strength comes from the belief you have in yourself….and when strength is just building in oneself…..it often comes from the beliefs others hold of you, for you!  I gave this gift to Erin during her 10K journey, and it was priceless.    But I need you to realize….that all of you….gave this same gift to me.  Just as precious!

Love from Cali!  and Ciao for now…..Diane

About Diane

Ciao! My name is Diane. I'm a wife, a mom, a working professional, and a Weight Watcher from New Jersey. I started blogging in 2011, at 45 years old, when I was training for my first Half Marathon at Rutgers on April 22, 2012. Since then, I've lost 80 pounds, completed my Half Marathon goal and gone on to train for and run my very first Full Marathon. On Jan 13, 2013, I ran the Disney Marathon in Orlando, Fl! What an incredible day. As the saying goes -- "The person who starts the race is not the same person who finishes the race." I am forever changed! So now we move on to the next phase of this journey! Come along. We're in this together!! Ciao for now!
