This past Sunday, I had the pleasure of running th This past Sunday, I had the pleasure of running the #womenruntheworld #shapewomenshalf and completed it for the seventh time. I was supposed to run this race as the pandemic hit in 2020 and hadn’t run in a @nyrr race in 3 years. I truly let myself enjoy the run this time with no expectations other than to have fun, take in the scenery around me and not sustain a serious injury. I had unexpected tears coming down as I crossed the finish line. So much has happened in the last 2 years and honestly I have changed. As I was running, I had gratitude for being alive and having the capacity to move. I thought about my daughter and all the people in my life that I truly value and cherish. I thought about all those who have died during the pandemic, all the #healthcareworkers who have made huge physical and emotional sacrifices and the lessons that I learned during the pandemic about embracing life and loved ones. I remembered to be proud of myself for even participating in the race and staying in my lane, not comparing myself to anyone else. I thought about showing my daughter that anything is possible if you believe in yourself and put in the work. You are never too old to dream or accomplish your dreams. Because I was present for every moment during that race, I achieved my best time! Life is short. Just do it!! With love ❤️ , Dr. Maggie #drmaggiecadet
