Well I made it around the whole route, the Run/Walk is completed and I am planning to do it again next year. make it through the walk. Not because of the distance but because of the sentimental nature of the event.  Once the walk started it became easier as everyone went as a group for a common goal and in support of watch other. The final numbers of attendees was 475 including people of all ages, ethnicities and reasons for attending.  I had the chance to take my son with me on the walk and was glad to have him join me this year and hopefully he will come join me again next year. 

Well the walk is tomorrow and I find myself with Mixed emotions  which I will write about in a bit. 
As you can see from the changed date I was unable to write much last night. I went to pick up my race package  with my number and such in it. I was going to get a flag and had the words and picture already planned out in my head. I heard where the flag station was and was fully intending to go get one. I then started to remember the losses I have had and the tears started to flow. It was all I could do to get to my vehicle and regain my composure. I didn't end up getting my flag but perhaps I may try just before the walk. Off to get ready and hopefully my son will join me for the event.


As it is getting closer I am wondering if I will make it the whole way or not, getting some nerves. The big question.....will I be strong enough?

Well, I finally did. I registered for the walk part of this event and feel great about it. I also changed my facebook pictures and posted the link as well. I think this is a  very good idea and puts a face to pregnancy loss at all stages. So many people experience a perinatal loss and feel that they are alone. So far over 200 participants have signed up and still lots of time for others to join. If you want to join me and others for this event you can register at the runningroom.com
