Heavy legs

Hello to my girls. Hannah you are right lets get this blog going. This last year has been a blur but here I am and I am still working out. The last few months I have had very little desire to work out but I just keep doing it knowing that getting out of shape is just not worth it. Every time I run my legs are HEAVY!! I feel like I am dragging. BUT, today was the first time in a run in a while that I felt like I had a bounce to my step a bit.
I am doing the half marathon in Lincoln, May 1st. We will be flying back to run and then flying right back to Virginia. I am especially excited because Jake is doing it too. That is the main reason I am doing it. I prefer shorter races but I will do it with him. i have always wanted to do something like this with Jake.
I am struggling in every way right now, emotionally, mentally, spiritually, physically. Working out, even though it has been very hard to keep going, has been a very good thing for me right now. I feel hope and I am thankful.
I hear ya Hannah. Although I love to work out, may I treasure Christ above all. May I run after HIM!!!!

I trained hard last summer and burned out a little. I went on a walk when it was 50 last week and realized how much I love walking with my verses, being outside. I know you don't really like walking, but you found Zumba that lets you have fun while you sweat. I love to dance too, it has given me joy to jump around with a bunch of girls that don't care if I shout or mess up. Running can be fun, but is more of a battle usually. Anyway, I want to enjoy moving while God grants me the health to move. Grateful for it everyday!
