In Training.... Again

I took time off after my 5K the end of April and used every excuse under the sun to not start running again (not that I ever was a runner... ever).

Why start again now? In my cleaning sprees lately (decluttering, dejunking, pre-moving/pre-packing cleaning) I came across a flyer for another race. A 6K. I don't know why I think I can run farther when I had to walk half of my last race. But I find myself setting the goal and setting up a training plan. Ha!

So today was a 20-minute workout, 10 of which I had to run... I did it! Tomorrow is longer...

My point? Well, if nothing else I will be in better shape. I have nagging thoughts that I need to be in shape physically and spuritually real soon.

So I am also training by listening to the New Testament recordings and need to get back to our family Book of Mormon reading in the mornings. Something tells me it's really important... but try telling that to kids...

So we pray, and hope that our family is getting it, as little as it might be at this time. It's important. We take it a little bit at a time so we can be prepared for our 1K, 1 mile, 3K, 5K, 6K, whatever it is for us spiritually.
