I DID IT!<\/p>\n

And, let’s just focus on that because I’m totally dreading doing it again! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

The walking wasn’t bad, but the running – oh my! lol\u00c2\u00a0 This week we are walking for 4 minutes and then running for 1.\u00c2\u00a0 Today we did 2 miles and tomorrow we will do 4.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m really only dreading it because I have two blisters now \ud83d\ude41 and I’m not sure what will happen tomorrow.\u00c2\u00a0 But I am going to do this!<\/p>\n

I have a great team who slowed down a bit for me – I felt bad but my goal at that point was to keep running and not stop…oh, and to breath! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

You really don’t need to remind me of my age… my weight….or question if I’ve lost my mind….believe me I know I’m out of shape (ha!), soft and better suited for knitting on the couch.\u00c2\u00a0 But this is why it’s a challenge! I know it is a BIG challenge that I’ve set in front of myself, but I also know that setting a challenge and MEETING that challenge will be very empowering.\u00c2\u00a0 And, I could use some power in my life.\u00c2\u00a0 But I definitely appreciate your prayers! I’ve NEVER opted to do something this hard.\u00c2\u00a0 I’ve lived through some hard things, but not CHOSEN them!<\/p>\n

I’ve been trying to find the right Scripture to get me through this – something I can repeat to myself to keep me going.\u00c2\u00a0 Right now the it seems to be:<\/p>\n

Phl 4:13<\/a><\/td>\n<\/td>\nI can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I appreciate your prayers.<\/p>\n
