Da-d-d-dah (fanfare)! Ran two miles today. Yeah! It was slow, as I predicted, but it felt really good. I mean, my calves were hurting pretty good by the last half mile, but I actually mean that I felt good spiritually during my run. I brought my friend Sara Groves with me and her music is really uplifting. I've decided that my workouts are more gratifying when I listen to Christian music than when I listen to whatever random thing comes up. I was actually smiling during my run and a couple of times closed my eyes while I was running to just praise God. Of course, I quickly realized that I was running with my eyes closed, so that didn't last long. I'm not fast, and my running would bring glory to anyone in and of itself, but if I mean for it to glorify God, then it will. "To lift up the hands in prayer gives God glory, but a man with a dungfork in his hand, a woman with a slop pail, gives Him glory too. He is so great that all things give Him glory if you mean they should." --Gerard Manley Hopkins
