Of Worth and Reflection

“Ran this morning along with my mapmyrun app, still figuring that one out, 7:54,8:03,7:58,9:49 last .83 in 6:11. Then I did str trng did chest, tri, bi, and ab ripper. Pre run flow 12 minutes.”

The above is a post I made this morning on dailymile. Funny how I can define myself by what how I perform. I will admit I feel better about myself. I feel like I have made progress on my road to running. I know to from reading and practicing proper perspective I know my worth as person is more than that. I find my worth in Jesus my God and King. Its because of him I have purpose and peace. He is good, kind and gives good gifts. Running is one of them. Last year I was unable run at all because of my injury from deployment. Yesterday during my Army Physical Fitness test I ran a 15:43 two mile that is so amazing. It is truly a testament to Jesus faithfulness to me. It is also a testament to hard work. As I get ready for ALC that is in 5 days. I find myself excited to get ready for competition with other 56M. I truly want to be best I can and the only way I can do that is to test myself against my peers. After all why not, my failure will only serve to be my Teacher. For now today it’s enough to know that I ran fast.

Restarts

Restarting my blog has been on my mind a lot. So here I am restarting it. What got me to do it was my looking around at Barnes & Nobles seeing a book about blogging and seeing a friend’s blog. My big idea for today is all about hobbies. I started thinking about all things I liked doing and keeping up with. I like Anime, I have lots of favorites right now I am watching the Naruto series on the vizanime site. I also read lot recently I have been doing a lot reading from the young adult lit area. I have read the Twilight series( I also love the movies) , I have the read the Percy Jackson series ( hated the movie), I have the read the Harry Potter series( love the movies), those are just to name a few. I also like Scifi and drama tv shows. I am a big fan of SGU, Lost, Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice, Make it or Break it, Secret Life of the American Teenager and believe or not I also watch Pretty Little Liars. I also Geocache with my wife and recently got it into that. If you like treasure hunting and being outside then check it out. I also game with my wife we play World of Warcraft. I find myself looking at my hobbies and I feel so vain. I also love to run, do yoga and all round like working out. I guess that is not so vain. As you can read from previous post I am a devoted follower of Jesus. Well this enough for now, in the upcoming days I will blog about my experience at preparing for Advance Leader Course and actually attending it.
