No Im not talking about impact as in running, Im talking about impact on others. There was one woman who inspired me above all else to heave myself off my sofa and start running. She is a doctor, wife, mother and with her first marathon she qualified for the Boston Marathon (amazing!!) she made me want to give it a shot. The way she talked about running was just inspiring! So I started, very slowly….and now Ive watched my good friend Lisa start running and seems to have found a lot of peace and a much calmer life from it. Today I recieved a private message at a parenting board Ive been a member of for years. A woman sent me a message saying she had seen my profile line above my picture stating my wieght loss and how far I needed to go. Then she clicked on the link to this blog!She congratulated me on my weight loss and said she was going to bookmark my site for inspiration. What an amazing feeling that is! I hope I can continue to touch others lives in a similar fashion!
