My friend Jen, gave me a green Gerbera daisy attached to this card and asked me to wear it when I run the Boston Marathon.
This gift was beyond thoughtful and when I read what the flower she had pick for me represented, it brought tears to my eyes. Jen told me about the Fellow Flowers - and that this flower is a symbol of friendship, strength and beauty.
Fellow Flowers believes that training for a race—any race—can change you . . . forever.
Believe. Achieve. Bloom. Endure. is their tagline.
How uplifting!
You can pick a flower that represents your journey. Check out Fellow Flowers here.
In less than 2 weeks, Jen and I will be running the Shamrock Shuffle 8k together with, I'm sure, other Fellow Flowers.
And in 3 weeks I will be running the Boston Marathon. The time has flown by since I qualified and started training. I was born to do this...
Pick your flower today. And share your journey!

Thanks, Jen!
I feel so sorry for the victims of todays carnage, the little kids who were killed or severely injured or permanetly maimed, the adults those killed and maimed, the families who are dealing with the loss of their family member. I send my heartfelt sympathies to the families of the ones who passed, for the little children who lost some of their innocence today, for all of Boston who is still reeling from the horror. Please know people do care about you and your beautiful city.
