“But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” – Isaiah 40:31.

Quick Update

Quick update:

Thank you for all the prayers for my friends and their family. Please continue to keep them in your prayers as they grieve the loss of their precious daughter.


I have had several things going on lately.
First, last Saturday I completed my second Warrior Dash.  My friend Angie and I rocked it 80's style. 

My goal was to finish top 3 in AG....well, it didn't happen but I did finish 15th in my AG out of 1045! I am still happy with that!  I think I could have finished better but I fell and busted my shin open in the second obstacle.  Thank God for legwarmers, I pulled them up to cover the wound and try to stop the bleeding. 
I look like I was crying and I probably was because my shin hurt like CRAZY!
Post Race after a rinse off....Maddox had a great time too!;)
I'm going to do the Warrior Dash one more time to attempt a top 3 placement and then I think I'm going to try the Tough Mudder.:)

Marathon training is going well.  I actually purchased a new training plan a few weeks ago because I didn't feel like the one I was using was going to take me where I need to be to BQ in November.  I ordered it off of Runner's World though Training Peaks.  I'm pretty happy with it.  I get an email every day straight to my phone reminding me what I need to do that day.  I'm growing more and more confident that a BQ is within my reach.  I know it is only because of God's ability in me that I am able to run at all.

Bonus! I won a SnorgTee from Running Diva Mom  and it came last week.....
how cute is that!?


Tomorrow is the day.  I have been promising you an amazing raffle/giveaway for weeks and it is finally ready!
Come back tomorrow to see all the goodies!!!

Hope your day is full of laughter and blessings!!!!

Grace and peace,
