This is what the Lord says— your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the Lord your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go.

What you heard from me, keep as the pattern of sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus. Guard the good deposit that was entrusted to you—guard it with the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us.

No running so far today. I may go the the gym and run 3-4 miles at lunch.

Here is the flyer on the 5K we are putting on.

Ran 7 by myself and then 7.25 with Callie, running longer on the turns to make the 7.25 instead of the normal 6.7 mile loop. This was the first time in a while I've felt like I could have gone further.
