Take the first step...

"Take the first step in faith. You don't
have to see the whole staircase.
Just take the first step."
- Martin Luther King Jr.



I am so proud of two of my clients that are preparing to leave town so that they can participate in the Hood to Coast Relay race in OR this weekend. It seems like it was just yesterday that we sat down and talked about their goal. At that time they were only running about ¼ of a mile at a time and did not consider themselves to be runners. However, over time they increased their mileage to the point that they are now running 6 ½ to 7 miles at a time. Being busy and extremely involved women, they had set backs and struggles along the way and yet they would begin again. Their participation in the journey to get to this point is what I am most proud of! Sure, I am excited to hear about how the race goes- but in my eyes, they have already crossed the finish line. Way to go Holly and Jen! Safe travels to you!
