WHAT INSPIRES YOU?
I am heading to Florida tomorrow to join my "Big Brother" Laird for the Walt Disney World Goofy and a Half Marathon. As I was thinking about this trip and what it means the word "inspiring" kept coming back to me. But I realized I didn't really know what INSPIRE meant. When I looked up the definition what stuck with me was "B: to exert an animating, enlivening or exalting influence on"... fitting since we are head to the 2nd Happiest Place on Earth (can't beat Disneyland). Then "A, C and D" took hold and I realized that to inspire means many different things. I was inspired to ask Laird if I could guest blog on his Page "Run Laird Run" and try to identify what it is that inspires you and drives you to be better than you were just moments ago. So please join me on this journey as I chEAR on one of my greatest inspriations as he tackles a 5k, Half Marathon and Marathon over the course of 3 days. (I'm just along for the fun).
And please take a moment and tell us "What inspires you!"
Smiles,
Jen (Laird's Lil' Sister)
