Marathon Mind Dump

Had a blast this weekend. We had friends from Lubbock in for the San Antonio Rock N Roll Marathon (thanks Oglesbys! had a blast!) so the house was packed!
My Dad was in town too for the race.
I ran my worst race time ever. Nice.
I do have a couple of “excuses.” First, training for marathons and planting a church at the same time is TOUGH.
Second, I stopped to help one guy during the race that was screaming bloody murder. He keep screaming “CRAMP! CRAMP!” It took about 10 minutes for a medical team person to show up. That knocked my time down a little.
I was reminded once more (as I am with every marathon) that 26.2 miles is a LONG STINKING WAY to run!
Today, my legs and hips are sore like nobody’s business and I have some nasty blisters on my toes.
NEVER EVER run in Nikes. Sheesh.
Heard from my team that it was an incredible day at our Revolution Launch Team Meeting yesterday. John Atkinson spoke to the team and did an amazing job! Thanks John!
Huge week coming up! Hoping to have most everything prepped and ready to go for our December 13th service by the end of the week.
Pumped up about the holidays!
Looking for creative ways to serve our community for Christmas. Anyone have any good ideas?
