Chelsea did it. Last Sunday, in Paris, she ran a half marathon.
A quote she often says, "You don't have to run fast, you just have to run, " then she adds, "I don't run fast, I run."
Chelsea's goal was to complete the marathon between two hours fifteen minutes to two hours and twenty minutes. Her time: Two hours and eighteen minutes.
I think that is fantastic.
Sacha, Mr. Espresso and a friend from university Alice were Chelsea's cheerleaders, they went to different points along the half marathon to cheer her on. Mr. Espresso brought a fake bottle of champagne, popped it at the finish line and let it spray over the racers! Confetti! Chelsea cracked up, she loved the affirmation of success.
Sacha noted, "Chelsea smiled the entire way, it was as if she wasn't running in a half marathon, but a smile-a-thon!"
Oh she was so happy.
Pleased.
An accomplished goal always sets the heart on fire!
