Run Like Austin

​Why do we run? Forest Gump said he just felt like running.  We know he had another reason...probably something to do with Jenny.  I ran long before Austin did.  I had another reason....it gave me time to work out things in my head.  Austin loved to run.  One day he came home from church and said, "I'm gonna loop the lake today." He did.  Why?  I think he wanted to be in shape and have another thing he accomplished.  I also think he just enjoyed it.  He loved to have a good work out.  He loved top look at the views over White Rock Lake.  He didn't  need any big reason.  I do.  Austin ran the half marathon and this year he wanted to run the full.   I need to work some things out while running,  So, no better reason to run the Dallas half-marathon.  That's right...half-marathon.  My full marathon days are over.  Javar was planning on running with Austin.  He still plans to run it.  So, we'll be training most Saturdays.  Run the marathon. Run the half-marathon.  Run the relay.  Come cheer us on.  Or, join us for a breakfast taco afterwards!

"Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever." 1 Cor 9:25
