The only way is up!

The good thing about Maple Syrup Runs, where every step requires a superhuman effort, is that your next run can only be better!

And so it was! After my Maple Syrup Run on Sunday, I ran a five miler effortlessly, feeling like Speedy Gonzales.

The same principle applies to motherhood. Some days are so hard they really get you down, so there is no other way than up!

Shania Twain wrote a song about this principle, which is not only great to listen to, but also great to run to!
