morning run {getting moving in the a.m.}...

i'm not a morning person.  i usually run in the late afternoon or early evening, right after school.  it seems like my body responds better when it's been allowed to wake up.  funny how that works.

for the past two days, however, i have run in the morning, around 7:30.  i actually have found that after a brisk minute of walking, i'm able to start shuffling my feet and the run feels good!  the morning air has been easier on my lungs and my legs have gotten into that runner's groove that i hear about but never seem to experience.

i'm finding too that early morning gives me time to worship as i run and then study in the quiet of my house with my java before the mad rush hits {ie, three children and a dog}.

thursday i may try the bridge in the a.m....

summer is upon us...

summer is here, at least in the sense of the encroaching heat and freedom from school and work. maybe not officially on the calendar, but definitely in our minds.

summer means maybe (don't hold me to it) i'll blog more often. it also means that i am extremely busy, but with things i choose to be busy with. like palmetto bible camp. and our 12 day youth mission trip. and a bahamas cruise. and books to read and study. and plenty of beach days.

at least i'll have something to blog about...
