Hours later, after rehashing each of our races and setting new goals, I start to think of my students and the importance of feedback and goal-setting. The place I came in today was irrelevant, what mattered was reaching my personal goal- running my race.

Running your Race
What a day! Ran a windy St. Patrick's Day 5k with family, friends, and 5,000 other participants with a start that consisted of running downhill. Minutes into the race, I lost sight of my family. Bobbing and weaving to avoid those who had become obstacles, I focused on my goals for the race and kept putting one foot in front of the other until I crossed the finish line. I ran my race.

Congratulations! Once I started running I thought of so many analogies between running and writing. Thanks for sharing!
