I have love on the mind. I give it and I love receiving it. It is the best feeling in the word to be loved and to give it. I say it and mean it. What does love mean to me? How do you express love? Or even put it into words? The feeling I get from loving someone is indescribable. The first time I met Bill I got such a feeling of excitement in my stomach. To this day I get the same feeling everytime I see him. It is amazing. The love a mother feels for a child is nothing I can describe.
My definition of love is caring about someone so deeply that my life would be very different with out them. There would always be a little piece of myself missing if they passed away or left me. My life is incomplete when you are away and I would do anything to protect you or to make you happy.
“Love is an incredibly powerful word. When you’re in love, you always want to be together, and when you’re not, you’re thinking about being together because you need that person and without them your life is incomplete” (Sophocles).

LP RUN
LP Run
Well tonight I ran this run called the LP Run for the first time. It consisted running around a track as much as you can in 33:32 minutes. I went in their confident but soon found my ass handed to me. It is bad when you are lapped 4 times by a 60 year old. Funny thing is I didn’t do that bad. A little over 4 miles. After about my 4th lap I started to see spots. It was so hot. So I tried to pace my self and did pretty good. I would have liked a fast mile.
Well in the end I must not have done too bad cause I managed to win 1st place in my age division. You should of seen the look of surprise on my face when they said “ Andrea Cox.” I am in a weird age bracket, but I hope to speed up my time and win some more, Maybe some gift cards or something would be nice. I am going to keep on training. The only thing that will stop me is this heat. It is getting a lot tougher to go run. I really enjoy my long runs still at the slower pace. I’m not giving up on being a distance run yet. I will be able to hit that 30 miler one day. All is good with the knee. Actually it feels great. It is so nice to not have that pain. I feel like I am getting back to my old self.
I know deep down I was born to run. As a child I had a natural ability to run. I always excelled in it. In school being named Most valuable in track and in cross country. I should of never given it up for as long as I did. My dad wanted to know when I was going to run my next race. He wants to come and watch me. He said he misses me and loves seeing me run. My parents were always so proud of me and enjoyed seeing me excel in everything that I did. I always was a winner when it came to running though. That is how I got the nickname Rabbit because I was so fast. Wish I was that fast again. I guess age has caught up with me.
