Great day for a run. I feel renewed and I had a feeling during my run today that I haven't had in a while. It was the feeling like I just needed to hook onto my legs like a trailer and go for a ride. Today was 10.5, hopefully I can get up tomorrow for a 5 or so...or maybe some skateboarding.

Today was a great run because I felt obligated to run really far but I didn't. Instead, I ran 5 and really enjoyed myself for the first time in a long time.

I discovered a really good cross-training method..for those of you who know how injury prone I am brace yourselves...Skateboarding! It's really fun and you use your legs nonstop, it works the core, hips, and at times can be really humbling.

I feel good about this Journey and the only thing I ask for personally are your prayers to stay healthy and for our nerves, as this is the first time any of us has done such a thing.

Thanks, see you on the road!

Ran just over 7 today, I had to get out before the spring snow showers come. We will have t-shirts soon, I can't wait.

There is nothing like a 15 mile run to battle a sinus infection. The only good thing about snow right now is that it can be a much needed ice pack during long runs.

I'm getting really excited about this whole deal. As expected, I already have been battling some health issues as time gets closer. I can't seem to remain healthy and my reason for needing surgery is getting worse. Just pray that it holds off.

See ya' on the road!

Happy Birthday Faith! Steve, Amy, Abby, you guys are in our prayers.

What's up all?

This week so far I've gone 21 miles, 11 on monday and 10 today. I just can't stand to see a beautiful day pass while I'm indoors. That's the good news. The bad news, or for those who know me this is just par for the course, is that I need surgery...again. I may be able to fend off the problem until after the run but if I can't we are talking 4-6 weeks of recovery. This would really put a damper on things if I didn't trust the Lord. My remaining training time would be cut in half. If I can hold off I will get it the Thursday after the run if assuming I have the strength left for recovery.
