Sloth Running Team

Eric and I did the Sloth Run 5K back on February 23. Eric ran on a treadmill in North East, Maryland. I walked (slowly) in Louisville, Kentucky. We get there when we get there. Our publicity team tells the story when they tell the story.

You will know

Amid all the challenges these days bring, remember:
One day this pandemic will end 
and then you will know. 
One day you will know 
how brave you have been. 
One day you will know
how strong you have been. 
One day you will know 
how resilient you have been. 
One day you will know
how resourceful you have been. 
One day you will know 
how gracious you have been. 
One day you will know
how loving you have been
Each day be yourself
and one day you will know.
