+ 11 @ Nationals

That was my overall score for the weekend.

Coming into the weekend I was ranked 8^th for the 3000m and 16^th for the 1500m.  At the end of the races I took 4^th for the 3000m with a best time of 9:51.45 and 6^th for the 1500m with a best time of 4:32:32.

That’s +11!

What really made the memory was that my faithful fans (mom and dad) came out to watch AND my brother and sister too!  We had a great time together at the races, dinner and coffee dates in between.

Also, I dyed my hair (why not)

- on a walk with my sister we ran into my Edmontonian aunt on her lunch break!

- and Alex watch my races live via the interwebs :)

That’s +11 with eleven --> !!!!!!!!!!!

Did I end up with an extra $11 at the end?  Maybe - but nobody counted.

Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in and day out.
