On day 16 of rest and feeling...GRRRR!! P.T. tomorrow and I am hopeful to TRY to run again. This was not the PLAN! I should be a few weeks into marathon training.
I have been icing, rolling, kneading, taping and doing my stretches and I am still not in CONTROL. To be honest I have been a bit cranky about running and got cranky with God just asking to please leave me some kind of normal during a time when nothing feels normal. Let me just run!
But again it is not my plan and I am not in control. So through it all I have held on to the idea on Perseverance.
I was thrilled that Eric at Endorphin Warrior sent me a very cool reminder of this! I have a beautiful PERSEVERE bracelet and I love it. It kind of makes me feel strong. My husband has the matching keychain and that makes me happy. (twins) Even when we are apart we remain a team. When it comes to life and running quitting is not an option. Even when it seems unfair or I don't understand why...I have to persevere.
Working with Endorphin Warrior has been touching and encouraging. I have a list of other inspiring goodies I will like to get as well. Very cool company!! So even though I am not running...I am working on being patient (and not freaking out)

I like the perseverance bracelet!
When I go through a rough time I seek out more time alone with God, and journal letters to God. It really helps me feel like I'm letting go and giving God the control. I like to have control even though I know God is in control! Hang in there and know that you have an awesome God who loves you and your family very much!
I love that you and your hubs have matching bands!! Thats super cool. Great word too!

i persevere when things get tough by getting out there and doing it anyway! Today is a good example. I'm coming down with something and did NOT feel up to a run today..but i knew i'd be aggravated with myself if i didn't do it. SO i ran 6.2 miles and it didn't make me feel any worse anyway! runner_girl5k at yahoo dot com

When things get tough, I persevere by singing, screaming, repeating (whatever it takes lol) that "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Phillipians 4:13). Just reminding myself of that is usually enough to help me get through it!
Oh gosh, what happened? I am so so behind. Are you ok?!

I persevere by taking things one step at a time. Looking at the big picture can sometimes be overwhelming. I look back on my past accomplishments and trust that if it is supposed to happen, God will give me the strength to make it through.
