A mom AND a runner.

A funny thing happened as I was on my way to the gym tonight.....my hubby called me roughly 4 minutes after I left our house to tell me that our son had hit his head (running head first into the couch and misjudged by a whisker - I don't know where he gets the running gene from!) requiring a trip to emergency. I could hear my boy shrieking in the background while on the phone and made a quick decision to abandon the gym and meet them all at the hospital, where we were taken in immediately and well attended to. Turns out he only needed one staple, no sign of concussion and we were on our way home in just over an hour. Phew.

Sorry to all who met at the gym tonight expecting their leader to guide them through the rain....I was with you in spirit. Kudos to all of you for heading out there regardless and a big thank you to Dr. Nick for stepping in when required!

My family is safe, I feel grateful to have such great opportunities in life and for all the fantastic people I have met through this wonderful sport known simply as 'running'. I look forward to seeing you all on Saturday!
