I Didn't Get Nervous When I Ran,

In My Race, Theres 10 Hurdles, But In Life, There Is Always A Hurdle. There Is Always Something You Gotta Get Over, And Its What You Do, You Know.

I Dont Have A Thyroid Anymore. I Had Radioactive Iodine Treatment, Which Destroyed My Thyroid. I Take Medication Every Day.

I Was Diagnosed With Graves' Disease, An Illness Of The Thyroid Gland. Instead Of Surgery, I Was Given Radiation Treatment.

It's Totally Different Now, Traveling To Different Meets And Different Cities And Actually Being Able To Enjoy The Cities I'm In.

People See Me Now And Ask If I'm Still Running. I May Look Like I Am, But I'm Really Not. People Think I Still Run Every Day But I Ran For 25 Years And I Deserve To Not Do Anything But Walk Or Ride The Bike With My Kids.
