And this, dear Jessica, is why I love you. I've said it before - you are the most positive person I know! I love your attitude, I love your smile, I love your sense of humor. And I love that you know how fill up your glass with lemonade. Keep it up, girl!

By the way, we still have that fabulous guest room for glass-fillers who need a run with a friend and some time to relax...

Yes, I love it. Focus on what's right, what's working, what's going well, and focus on what you want to achieve (not on what you're afraid of). Start where you are, do what you can, and celebrate and acknowledge every positive step along the way. Make small goals, set low expectations and then achieve them. You were so very inspiring to me when you did that marathon - I'd love to give some of that inspiration back.
