"Memories Last Forever"

Hey everyone,
I hope all is well and the summer heat isn't too much for you. Please remember when it is hot outside, stay hydrated and keep cool. Well unfortunately some sad news has recently hit our family. My husband's grandma passed away a couple of days ago in Florida. I am so happy and thankful that I got an opportunity to met Grandma Holland! She was an amazing person and loved to spoil her great grand kids. I have realized that we have to take each day and cherish them as if they are our last. Grandma lived a wonderful life and we all know that she is in heaven with her late husband and of course GOD. I pray that all of her family members will be able to cope with the loss and continue to remember Grandma for who she was.
"Memories Last Forever"

Many of you have been wondering what have I been up to since Outdoor Nationals. Well I finished top 10 and was happy with my performances. I ran 52.29 and missed making the final by 2 spots. Hey not bad for a chicka who just had a baby 11 months ago ha ha. But I was excited to be there, be around my old competitors and friends. It was an awesome feeling, and just to have the adrenaline rushing again....whewwwww
So after the meet we weren't sure what my next steps were going to be, should I try to go over to Europe or try the Canadian series? Since I do not have a sponsor at this moment travel can get very expensive and now I have to come out of pocket for it. I passed on some meets to Europe because at the time my agents wanted me to go tickets would have been very expensive. They wanted me to leave 2 days after coming back from Iowa.......man I need more notice than that...ha...ha I got a baby now.....

So I am training at least 4 days now out of the week getting Sat/Sund off. I plan to try and get in some meets in Europe in August. Let's hope for the best! I want to run more and bring my time down to the 51's and then the 50's. Man next year I will have to be ready to go, there will be no excuses of just having a baby...I just have to go hard or go home. So stay tuned and I will let you all know if I get a grant that I applied for at USATF.com. It would help cover my travel to European competitions.....so pray that I get it. (smile) BTW Brooklyn will be 1 on August 1, 2010....my lil girl......

So again till we meet again,
Love,
Mrs. Wineberg
