Tomorrow!

Holy smokes! Well tomorrow we are getting up early to drive to Ljubljana for the 14th Ljubljana Marathon!! Race startes at 10:30 am! Brooke and Polona are going to be Johnny and I's encouragers throughout the race! There are also a few people that came down from Czech that are staying with us and will be running the race as well! However, one of them is running the whole marathon and the other is running the half like Johnny and I. I am getting very excited but really nervous for some reason :) You know like that nervous/excited feeling in your stomach!! Because in exactly 24 hours the race will begin!! Right now its raining here but the forecast says that tomorrow is supposed to be a nice day! So I am praying for great weather!!

Also, I just need to say thank you to my sweet sweet friend Amanda, who sent me the most encouraging email last week, with so many verses with the analogy of running, that I will be quoting to myself the whole time :) I have my playlist on my ipod all ready to go! I have been drinking lots of water and peeing like crazy to keep my self hydrated! I don't want to be passing out or anything! I have been trying to get my carbs in this week andddd yea... I think that's all!! Oh and I have my new running shoes!! Thank you Asics! So thank you everyone that have been encouraging me up to this point and who have encouraged me not to quit! (Brooke, Johnny, Kel, Amanda, Elizabeth) I will be thinking of you while I am running! While at the same time totally focusing on the Lord who is giving the ability, and body, and strength, and lungs, and heart, etc to do this!! I am so thankful :)

K... I am going for a short little run to keep the muscles loose or something :) I will update asap!! Thank you for your prayers and support!!!!!!!!!!!

¹Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. ²Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. ³Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. -Hebrews 12:1-3
