I am 59 years old today!! That’s 59 on 5-9!
I don’t feel it (and I hope I don’t look it!!) I don’t think I act that old, either.
As far as running goes, if you asked me 5 years ago if I would run in a 5k race, I would have laughed in your face. But I have run 50 of them (taking 10 minutes off my finish time in the process.)
If you asked me two years ago if I would run a half marathon, I would have done the same. And I have run 5 halfs, too.
my proudest moment
However, on the flip side, a year ago, I never would have thought that I would not be running today. I may have even though that I would have run my first marathon by now.
Besides my ankle, I am healthy. It will heal. I will run again. So…
I have my family and awesome friends. I am on vacation!!! I feel blessed.
Happy Running! Thanks for stopping by!
My First 5K and More... 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
And you definitely don’t look 59, much younger.

Great photo of your “proudest moment”.
Don’t worry, there are other half marathons in your future and if you are not in hurry with the recover I see the marathons too.
Happy happy birthday!!!!
