I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should. Otherwise, I fear that after preaching to others I myself might be disqualified. 1Corinthians 9:27 NLT

Getting Stronger and Faster
The longer I run, the more I realize how much a part of my life fitness has become. I do a HIIT workout 5 days per week, and run 3 days per week. I recently started biking after a friend got me interested. Like I really needed one more addiction......well, at least it's a healthy one. I ran a local 10K on September 20th, and PR'd by exactly one minute...and came in first place overall. It's amazing to me how my body adapts and changes as I become more and more fit. I have been running for 6 years, but I continue to learn more and more about fitness and taking care of my body every day. I believe the biggest revelation was the fact that for me, it is spiritual, physical, and mental. If I don't work on all 3 aspects of my fitness at the same time, something just isn't in sync. I am so grateful for the strength and health I've been blessed with! Can't wait to see what God has planned for me next.
