Yesterday was my first day of vacation and I was planning to do my blog post in the evening and then things got really hectic. I ended up going over to my sister's house so that I could watch my nephew. They are both very sick with ear infections and chest colds. My sister and I commented how it is so hard to see someone who is so young and so helpless be sick. However, I reminded her that dad was in a very similar position, but worse. We must be thankful that it is only a cold and it too shall pass.
I thought that I might not get a chance to run today, because it started to poor when I headed for home. However, God cleared the sky and provided for another great run for me. I felt so good running today...I definitely was going at a faster pace. I even decided to run on the bike path around Lake Harriet so that I could get in a little bit more distance. However, I got a few nasty stares from bike riders and even one was so gutsy to tell me, "wrong trail". I just kept on going, but there was something inside of me that wanted to see that woman again and say, "By the way, I know I'm on the wrong trail..I'm just going for more distance." Oh well...I don't need to explain myself to her. Anyway, that was kind of upsetting, but I just kept on going and praising God for the health He has given me to run. I feel so blessed. I once again saw those people practicing a play outside and a part of me wanted to stop and watch, but that probably wasn't necessary. Another interesting, but amazing run! Thanks God!
I ask for your prayers for my sister and my little nephew. May God restore them back to health so that they may live out their every day for him. Please also pray for me that God continues to bless me with good health to successfully complete this marathon for Him and for my dad.
Much love,
Lacy
