SINGING IN THE RAIN

CAN YA'LL BELIEVE WE DID 15 MILES SATURDAY,, AND IN THE POURING RAIN. BUT YOU KNOW IT WAS FUN, AND WE WERE ALL DOING IT TOGETHER, MY SHOES WERE SO FULL OF WATER I FELT LIKE I WAS JUST SHOSLING AROUND IN THEM, I PROB WAS,, I WAS AFRAID OF BLISTERS BUT I DIDNT HAVE ANY,, THERE WERE A COUPLE OF TIMES I HAD TO HAVE A COMING TO JESUS TALK TO MYSELF, IT WAS JUST HARD AT TIMES, BUT BY TIME I GOT TO THE END I WAS SO PROUD OF MYSELF I DIDNT THINK ABOUT IT,, I WASNT HERE FOR THE HALF MARATHON SO THIS WAS A BIG THING FOR ME. AND JUST THINK WE HAVE onlyyyyyyyyyyy 8 MILES NEXT SATURDAY
I HAVE FOUND THAT WHILE LISTENING TO MY RADIO WHILE IM RUNNING AND SINGING ALONG MAKES THE TIME GO BY FASTER FOR ME, I THINK ABOUT THE MUSIC INSTEAD OF THE RUNNING OR WALKING, SO IF I PASS YOU, OR YOU PASS ME MORE LIKELY AND IM SINGING, JUST PAY ME NO MIND , IM JUST IN MY LITTLE COUNTRY MUSIC ZONE, JAMMING OUT AS THEY SAY,, ITS FUN.
I WAS PROUD OF OUR GROUP SATURDAY AS WE ALL TURNED OUT, WE ARE A DEDICATED GROUP,, I PASSED ONE LADY THAT HAD THE TEAM IN TRAINING T SHIRT ON AND SHE ASKED ME HOW MUCH WE WERE DOING, AND I TOLD HER 15 MILES, AND SHE SAID WOW SHE WAS ONLY DOING 5. IM THINKING OUR PROGRAM WILL HAVE US MUCH MORE READY FOR THE MARATHON.
THANKS AGAIN MARK AND ROBIN AND ALL ELSE WHO HAVE PUT IN YOUR TIME AND DEDICATION TO GET US TO THE POINT, WE, I KNOW FOR SURE I COULDNT HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT YOU AND LOOKING ALREADY TO NEXT YEAR WHEN I START MM2!
HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GOOD WEEK
OHHH, TURNED THE RESIGNATION IN THIS MORNIG, KINDA HARD TELLING THE RECEPTIONST, WE HAVE BECOME CLOSE AND GONE THROUGH ALOT TOGETHER BUT SHE SAID SHE UNDESTOOD AND THAT IF PRAYED HARD ABOUT IT AND HAD A PEACE IT WAS MEANT TO BE, SO IM OK NOW, JUST GETTING THAT PART OVER WITH WAS THE HARDEST.
TAKE CARE ALL,
SEE YA SATURDAY!

I missed the half so this was a big deal for me too. I'm glad I'm not the only one singing out there. The last 2 miles, I had to stop myself from dancing on the side of the road, ha, ha. See you Saturday!

Good luck with your new job. It is very hard to make the decision to leave esp. if you like the people you work with.
See you at the run Saturday!

I had a couple of those "come to Jesus" talks Saturday. As usual he came through for us and we made it just fine. Glad to be on the same team and I am looking forward to being on MM2 with you next year!! Suzanne

You looked good out there Saturday morning! All smiles!

I know how hard it can be with the job thing...I'm still adjusting to my new job BUT God let it just fall in my lap a few months ago, and now I get to stay home most of the week with Brennan. It was what I had been wanting--but, the circumstances for me could've been better.... Anyway--my point is, no matter how tough the decision might be, God's going to lead you in the right direction!!!
