... not so RANDOM: Really.

Really.

You might remember the end of this post. The day before I ran (ok, lets be honest, mostly walked!) 20 miles. For the first time. Crazy. Repeating this over and over, with each mile.

It goes a little like this:

I really can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

I can really do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Really.

Philippians 4:13

Told ya a word was missing!

The picture above is ME crossing the finish line (directly after Hi-5'in Donald!) of the Disney Marathon.... 26.2 miles and 7 hours, 1 minute, and 29 seconds. Respectively. Didn't care how long it took, as long as I finished.

Ryan did SO AMAZING this weekend, too... more about all of that, coming this week. I really wanted everyone to focus on the truth of that verse. I'm not a runner. Really.

I did, however, RUN across the finish line!
