My life feels like a Marathon...why not try a real one


I like to think of life as a journey. A constant struggle against the current. Ordinary is not a word that I want people to think of when my life is over. The problem is I am ordinary. Nothing I have done qualifies me as being anything but ordinary. I have this mental list of things i want to accomplish in the near future. I have been thinking of this one goal alot recently. I want to run a marathon. Sounds silly I know. I once saw this video about a father and son. The son was a parapligic and wanted to be in triathalthon (sp). The father pushed him while he ran, swam with the son on his back, and pulled him when he cycled. God gave me working legs and a beating heart for a reason. A marathon would be a perfect way to thank him. Ok well maybe a half marathon would be a good way to thank him instead! : )
