Get set GO!!!

The past two months have been terrible for running...between the holidays, work and injuries I have done very little. I visited an oertho yesterday and basically received a clean bill of health (and I am certain another kind of $$$ bill) so I am going to start building the miles. I have missed running with the crew from tatur.org. I am anxious for warm weather, longer days and long runs.

7But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 2 Corinthians 4:7-9

Places I want to see:

Grand Canyon again...like to run rim to rim.

Grand Tetons.

Yosemite/Giant redwoods.

Thailand beaches.

Great Wall of China.

Australia, New Zealand.

The Himalayas and the Alps.

Things I want to do:

Travel to many college football and basketball venues.

Run 100 mile run.

Autumn fall folliage tour.

Bed and Breakfast hop in Europe and the US.

Open a B and B that caters to runners.

Couple of places to put on the I would like to run here list.

Day Off, Day to Run

The grass withers and the flowers fade, but the Word of our God stands forever. Isaiah 40.8

Beautiful day for a run, it is going to be cool, little breeze, sunny, the leaves are changing...what a blessed day. I am a mentor at a elementary school and run with a young man at least once a week and we visit and I try to offer him encouragement. He is a great kid with a ready smile and a very caring spirit, he offers encouragement to younger kids...I have great hope for him, I don't want the world to swallow him up. Get involved with kids, mentor them, encourage them, listen to them, I think in the end I get way more out of it than he does, funny when you give you receive so much back.

Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you. Psalm9:10
