Pooped out...Not literally!

I keep reaching around "Back" and giving the old booty a good rub. My right butt cheek sure is sore! Kinda personal but for those runners you understand it is not weird it is the nature of the beast!


"He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak." Isaiah 40:29

I think it was from my hills a couple days ago that hindered my long run today. As I was running Monday, I had a feeling there were too many good songs back to back on my Ipod. I was running like a rock-star.. and today I was running like I got sucker punched and dropped kicked by Bruce Lee.
I waited to do my long run because I wanted a partner so bad. SO by the time I left the house to start my run and  met back home to pick up Andy it was already 1pm and cooking out. I was removing clothing and looking for more water in the 90 degree heat.

I finished the last 5.5 miles with Andy. I was breathing a little heavy, tripping over my feet and running on empty but it was good because it kept my pace down. I even added walk breaks in there to keep my pace around a 9 minute mile and it worked. It did not remove the tiredness or the sore butt cheeks but it got me through 16 miles.

ANXIETY
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (Matt. 6:34)
FRIDAY I enter my registration for BOSTON. I am so nervous. It is going to be close and I have to work all day starting at 8:30. I am trying not to freak out...I am trying to give it to GOD and not be a Indian giver and take it back. It is a work in progress...I could use some extra prayers though....That's my way of asking to not forget me in your prayers!
SATURDAY I pray I do well reading for Amamda's Wedding. It is such an honor but I am a Airhead. Only God knows how I am going to do with this one. But one good thing..I found my dress!!

RUN FOR A REMEDY: This is less than 2 weeks away. I am a hot mess here! I direct this run, it is a 5K walk/ run befitting Children's Leukemia Foundation, I am stressing out over this one! Check it out on Facebook. I would love to see some of my readers out there!
