I am so excited about my progress. As you have seen in my earlier posts, I have been struggling a bit with the actual running part of this and have been walking more than running. This past week, I hit an exciting milestone as my running equalled my walking on the training route. I ran 2 1/2 miles and walked 2 1/2 miles for a grand total of 5 miles - all in one run. It felt so wonderful to know that I could go that far running. Now I know I can do more and more.
It was really thinking about Wally and everything that happened around his passing that keeps me pushing myself. I will try in the next few blogs to share with you some of the memories I have of that time to help you understand where I am at emotionally with this journey.
Richard is heading to New York City this week. He is going to visit Mickey Mantle's restaurant for his dad. Mickey Mantle was Wally's hero and he was never able to visit the restaurant. Richard is going to take some of the earth from Wally's grave there to sprinkle outside.
