Cheers to our Health, Donna

Congratulations Donna! Way to go.

First of all, that was the perfect goal for the first race.  Now you can try to improve your time but don't be so consumed with improving that it kills the joy.  Keep on moving.

That is such a great accomplishment since you are only 2.5 months post-op!  I'm impressed that you had such a lofty goal so early out!  Way to go! Wanda
