The beginning of this year I "committed" to a 40 day fast to help me re-focus and re-direct my goals for 2009. It was AMAZING! I have gained so much more clarity in the things that I am SUPPOSED to be focussing on for this season of my life.
I have also gained more passion for living well, spiritually and physically. To do my part in being healthy, mind, body and spirit. Feeding those areas with good things, and avoiding the bad.
As a way to help me stay committed to running, I have recently signed up to do a 1/2 marathon in May. Must TRAIN! I LOVE the challenge and appreciate the push (thanks Julie!). My running buddies, Julie and Kim will motivate me and encourage me when I need it. I LOVE the quality time spent with them when we get the chance to get out and run together, but also just talking about all the stuff associated with running!!
During the fast, I looked at food in a completely different way. I chose to really try and learn how to feed my body properly. In order to run healthy, my muscles need certain foods...for endurance and for recovery. It's been quite educational.
AND last but not least, I'm feeding my brain well. I have been spending way less time with t.v. and so much more time reading! Recently, I've decided to take a course through OSB to continue learning about the things I'm passionate about (people, personalities and spiritual gifts!)
Until next time,
