Mission Accomplished

A few weeks ago I was able to finish my first 10K with my former college roommate, Ann. It was a glorious weekend of shopping, fellowship, and rejoicing in all that life has to offer. If you talked to me two years ago and said I would be running 6.2 miles without stopping I would have laughed in disbelief. It was two years ago that I was convicted about the unhealthy lifestyle I was living and set out to change it. I've lost 40 lbs since then and have a new found joy in running. I've still got more weight to lose but I am happy with the active lifestyle I have maintained so far. Next on the list is running a half marathon in March and maybe a triathlon after that. I praise God for the strength and endurance he has blessed me with to continue my running.
