Well, I cut my run to 7 today instead of 10 for a couple of reasons. First I went to bed really early and got up at 6:00 so 7 was all I had time to run. Second, I decided because of my hip/back issue that I would cut the milage down. When I started running my hip/back were very stiff and somewhat painful but as I ran it got much better to the point it wasn't hurting at all. The first half mile was very slow but as I realized I wasn't in any pain I decided to push it more and more throughout the run. Come to find out, when I finished, I had actually run the fastest pace ever for my standard 7 mile loop run. I also realized, while looking at my running record, that on my 5 mile race a couple of weeks ago that I had run a faster pace than on my fastest 5K race. That gives me confidence that I can actually break a 20:00 5K...Ha ha..that's if my body holds out. I'm still pushing to run 70 miles this week.

1 Chronicles 4:10 Jabez called on Israelâs God: âIf only you would greatly bless me and increase my territory. May your power go with me to keep me from trouble, so as not to cause me pain.â And God granted his request.
