& she did it!
She finished her run in about 3 hours with a kiss to her uncle that passed away unexpectedly while she was in Hawaii and a smile of success and accomplishment. She defeated every word, person, and fear that has once crossed her path and told her she couldn’t do this. She is now an athlete, a runner, a woman who sees that life is worth it, and challenges are never impossible but just need to be worked out until resolved or overcome. She is an inspiration to most people that may have the same fears as her, for she is like everyone else out there that never takes time to see what they need to do for themselves because they spend so much time caring for others. She leaped over fears that were larger than you could imagine and told all the people that told her she'd never be able to do it to kiss her aZ$ as she passed that finish line. From the months of working out, she proved to herself that anything is possible!
Be selfish at times to become healthy all of the time, your body will thank you!
From a very, very proud trainer…sorry I did not get to write this sooner! You have worked hard and sustained my crappy workouts but it has all paid off because you are happy which is worth more than anything else in the world. I can not tell you how proud I am of you and as long as you are willing to work, I will not give up on you. You would make any trainer proud but I am happy I was able to go through this journey with you! Keep working hard Stefanie, you are in control of your life now!
