1 Corinthians 9:25-27 “All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing. I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should. Otherwise, I fear that after preaching to others I myself might be disqualified.” (NLT)

Black Bird 10K
Finished my first 10K race today...6.2 miles...1:01:28....yayay!!!! It felt like such an accomplishment. When I got to mile 4 I really wanted to stop but kept hearing Billy Blanks say...anyone can do this when they are fresh...what makes you different is you keep going when you want to stop....okay...okay...I kept saying to myself...with God all things are possible...all things!!! Stopped my a garage sale and found some great deals for $.50 each and even found an "at home" stepper for $3...wonder if that means I should learn these step moves...haha. (BTW, stopped at the garage sale after the race...would have messed up my pace to stop during...hehe)
