Just Keep Swimming

Been a little down lately because of my injury.  Bummed because my 10K race is in a week and a half and my physical therapist ordered the dreadful "No Running" prescription.

Sigh.

I am struggling today to focus on other things - nothing too exciting - like chipping away at the growing pile of dirty laundry.  After allowing myself to wallow in self-pity and frustration, I decided ok, I'm done, I need to move on.  To keep moving.  I couldn't help but think of Dory, the fish from "Finding Nemo" the movie.  The exchange between Dory and Marlin is a perfect reminder for me today that life goes on and you keep moving along with it. 

Dory:"Hey Mr. Grumpy Gills...When life gets you down do you wanna know what you gotta do?"
Marlin:"I don't wanna know what you gotta do."
Dory:"Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. What do we do? We swim, swim."
