WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU?


He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. - Micah 6:8 NIV

My first "run"...

Ephemistically speaking, none of my former "runs" really counted. the early ones, especially, where glorified walks accentuated by bouts of heavy breathing, coughing, profuse sweating, creaking of the knees and moments of severe guilt and self-pity.

Today was the first day that I literally ran from beginning to end. I thought that I was going to cough up a lung on the last hill but I am pretty stoked about it now that I have recovered.

Baby steps. My goal is to be in good enough shape to be able to hike a 14,000 foot mountain this summer which I have not been on top of in over a decade.
