A Perfect Run

Thank you Lord for not allowing me to control my life. If we only listened all of the time. This morning I did not run and was feeling bad about it because I do not like to run at night and knew that that is what had to happen. Mentally, I like to run at night, but physically I am just slow and not fresh. Thank you Lord for proving me wrong. I had the best run of my "career." It was a balmy 63 degrees (never really understood the word balmy until tonight), and I did a 7 mile tempo run. It was awesome.....whoah. A tempo run is supposed to be comfortably hard, but for this one I was working hard and really enjoying it, barely sweating because of the nice breeze and felt light and free. I have not always been so up beat about the tempo runs (ha), but today was a new day. I am thankful that God exceeded my expectations and that he has control. I love running.
