Nike Women's is just a few weeks away, and it seems like all the girls have fallen apart. Old injuries, new injuries, work stresses (oh we didn't actually "fail", we were just 24 hours away from failing), personal stress (men should have Surgeon General Warning Labels on them) have all taken their toll on the girls. You know it's bad when the thought for the team shirt for Nike says "I'm not slow, I'm injured".
*sigh*
This is the time that the girls need to pull together, sharing our frustrations, fears and tears. It's our bonds of love & friendship that make us stronger together and able to weather all these storms. A lone tree is buffeted by high winds and in constant danger of toppling over. Together, the forest stands secure through the worst hurricane, each tree drawing the needed strength to survive the tempest by intertwining her roots with her those of her neighbors.
This too, shall pass.

Wow! Great post. And, oh my gosh, I so want that shirt "I'm not slow, I'm just injured." Surely someone makes that, right?
Use each other, that's what your GFs are all about. You guys will all pull together and do just great.

We got our shirts at Zazzle... you can get ANYTHING you want printed on them, and they have sport shirts (not just T-shirts).
Rest your injury! You'll be glad you did on race day!
