I re-started week 3 of C25K this morning. I was in between the running intervals 3 and 4 when my legs started feeling really heavy and I was dragging. I seriously was thinking about turning around when I looked down, and at the bottome of a driveway, just next to the sidewalk, I saw two pieces of red bark mulch in the shape of a cross. I paused and smiled. What immediately popped into my mind was Philippians 4:13. I can do all things through Christ, who strenghtens me. I picked up my pace and kept going, and that next running interval was one of the best I've done so far. So I have a new workout partner. I hope he likes running.
Now Faith is being sure of what we hope for, and certain of what we do not see. ~ Hebrews 11:1
Love it! Need to remember that after work today when I embark on my workout. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI *love* this, Kyra! You've brought tears to my eyes! :) Believe me, I have turned to my faith MANY times on my journey when I've felt like giving the heck up!! Reminds me of "God is my refuge and my strength, my very present help in times of trouble!" You so rock doing the running 5k!
