My Run for Sherry

I had to work today so I didn't get to run at 8 am when most everyone else was running for Sherry. I did get to read a lot of amazing and wonderful posts during work to inspire me. I was feeling kinda crappy and sick to my stomach, but I wasn't going to let that stop me, today's run was about more than me or my desire to run. I got out there as soon as I got home from work, with my bib on. I did a quick 2.5 mile run for Sherry. I thought about her and her family and hoped that everyone running for them gave them some peace. I came home feeling happy and ready for my evening, blessed by the fact that I got to come home.

Proud to have run for Sherry



Don't forget about my giveaway that ends tonight at midnight! 3 of you will win the Chickband of your choosing!

    Your post got me a little choked up. Its incredible seeing everybody ban together for a lady that they didnt even know because of how strong running brings us all together.

    Way to get out, stomach ache and all! I ran alone too, but it's pretty powerful knowing how many other people were out there running 'with us'!

      And somehow this got left on the wrong post! I don't know how that happened. Good for you, running for Sherry even though you weren't feeling that great. I ran for her yesterday too!
