Music Monday: Roar

by // // Comments off

Over the weekend, I participated in back to back races. On Saturday, my daughter, Allana, and I ran in the Girl Scouts of West Coast Central Florida’s Thin Mint Sprint 5K.  It was a gorgeous day and a well organized event  (full recap soon), but this fun cookie-themed race became even sweeter when I placed in the top 50 females.  For my efforts, I was awarded a box of Girl Scout cookies.

Then, on Sunday, I faced my fear of swimming in lakes and conquered the hills of Clermont at Iron Girl Triathlon.  In the last half mile stretch to the finish, I passed an already finished competitor who stood as a spectator cheering for each of us as we ran by her.  As I sprinted by her, she hollered “You’re looking FIERCE, girl. Way to take that finish.  Keep it up!  Finish strong!”

I did feel fierce.  It had been a challenging weekend but I felt so strong and invincible.

I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me ROAR!

But there’s more to roar about!  Today, I am a featured spotlight dancer for Xmas Dolly and her Monday’s Music Move Me dance party crew.

What making you roar this Monday?  What music is moving you?  

 

Starting next Monday, October 7, I will be sharing my favorite Halloween spine tingling tunes for Music Monday and I would love to hear what Halloween songs move your spirit.  Link up and play along…if you dare.  Muhahahahahahaha!
