What Lies Ahead?

I have never gone for the big job. Now don't get me wrong, I have applied for many jobs which were important to me. Some I have gotten, others I haven't. I have never gone for the big boss job though. That changed this morning.

Four people have written me over the last month or so suggesting I apply for the an executive director position. In this case it is with CARA - the Chicago Area Runners Association. This position would be ideal for me. It allows me to use my nonprofit skills. It also allows me to be active in the running community and really promote running. 

I will be honest, I think I am up to the task. I am not one to pat myself on the back, but in this case, I think I am a darned hard worker, and would be a terrific executive director. Now I wait to see if I get the interview. This is the nerce wracking part.
