I'll keep running....
Because it gives me perspective.
Now I realize my problems aren't so big.
My life is pretty great afterall.
And a mile is a lot longer than it seems in the car.

So I figured no big deal, I can play a women's B- volleyball tournament after running 18 miles yesterday...turns out after getting painfully beaten in the first 2 games, we won the next 6 and end up taking 2nd place in pool play.  So of course we take the semi-finals to 3 hard fought games then have only a 5 minute break until the finals...against the only team that beat us.  We lost the first game in a pretty tight match then managed to win the second game (with about zero energy left) so we are forced to a third game to 15 points, win by 2, no cap.  We were up a few points to start but then they caught up and and we played back and forth points until we finally pulled it out to a 20-18 win!!!!!!!  I have no idea how I found the energy to play, especially middle position and hope I don't fall over dead!
