2009 HeartWalk...

I did something on Saturday that made me feel a wide range of emotions...

I was happy,

sad,

proud,

angry,

weepy,

smiley,

tired,

frustrated,

hopeful...

you name it.

Mojo and I participated in the 2009 Heartwalk and I am so glad we did it. It was a 5K Walk that helped raise money and bring awareness to the #1 killer in this country.

and not only did I walk the 3.1 miles to the finish line...

I got to carry a 40 pound child on my shoulders for half of it.

(hence the 'tired' description above)

happy~to be running after Mojo, my energizer bunny, the whole time

sad~to see all the names of those who have passed this year

Proud~to be a part of this large group

angry~well, only because Morgan left his listening ears at home

weepy~to see all the pictures of those who are no longer here

smiley~to feel a sense of accomplishment at the end

tired~as mentioned above thanks to Mojo

frustrated~that I did not do more

hopeful~because next year, I will do more!

If you have never done a charity event I highly urge you to try just one.

It is very fullfilling and energizes you to do more...

to do better...

to make a difference...

even if it is small...

it is something.
