I am training for the Bolder Boulder 10K that will happen on Memorial Day. We did it last year and had such a great time! What a feeling of accomplishment!
As I was on my long run last Monday, I was on the last two miles and ran past a beautiful Blue Heron sitting at the side of a pond near a golf course close to our home. I had seen another heron not a week before flying over our house…but now it was SO close and SO beautiful and peaceful.
When I got home, I immediately grabbed my camera to go get a photo, but when I got there, the bird was gone.
I looked up the Blue Heron in my reference book, “Animal Speaks,” (link and information below). The Heron means, “Aggressive Self-Determination and Self-Reliance.” Both of these are traits I need when I am running — and in my life overall. A Perfect Moment to note this Monday.
