Woke up rather early this morning feeling almost pulled out of my sleep and I had this thought come to mind that was like; "Steve, get out of bed and get ready to run".  But my knee, I don't want to make this worse I told myself.  No.. Get up now.  Ok so I get up and I turn on my radio as I try to rub the sleep out of my eyes.  And I hear a man telling the age old story of Abraham and Isaac also known as the "Ram in the Thicket".  I remember my own Ram in the Thicket experience and began to ponder the meaning of this all.  I felt a strong impression to renew my own spiritual comittment and to move forward again.  So this morning I'm going to in a sense start over both in obedience to the Lord and to my training faith not wavering.  

AM-5 miles easy up to Walmart and back. 

PM-Easy 6 miles up to 13th/9400 and back.  The good thing about snow and ice is that it slows you down and not only does that save you from falling on your can it also keeps you at an appropriate pace.  I'm trying to put a positive spin on this but wow.. I'll sure be glad when spring is here:)

A quick run to Walmart sounds like a fantastic way to start off the year :)

Thanks every one. The Walmart route is just a quick and direct route. I actually hate going in there and try to avoid it as much as possible.
