I took off in the jungle-like humidity of July where the sun was covered with a thick haze. There wasn't anyone else on the road when I left but I didn't feel alone. I know my baby boy Cullen is always with me. I promised him that we would be together again someday and that I would never forget him. Before their first birthday I got a tattoo as a memorial to my little angel, Cullen. As I run through the city streets and around the park and zoo I feel like I'm running with Cullen. I enjoy my time with him. I often think of him and remember his birthday very well. The details that flood my dreams and sometimes my life of the brief hours I had with him. My little man who was taken from me. Cullen I love you.
With that all said I have set my sights on a goal to run a half marathon. I have no idea when I will be able to do it but I am going to try my hardest to get there. My 5Ks are still important to me as I love running with Stella. She is extremely enthusiastic about 5Ks and she is a fast runner. She helps push me. She's going to do the Hidden Treasure 5K with me in September. It's exciting it will be her first chip timed race. She'll also be partaking in the after party as a runner not an on-looker.
Until next time.......thank you for reading.
