Day 4 Thankful July 2013

Running-regular readers know how thankful I am for that. It is my go to stress relief, calorie burner and prayer time. I speak with God, discuss my concerns with Him, beg Him, whine to Him and praise Him and His gifts. Sometimes I go over events to happen in my day, prepare my thoughts for the hours ahead. Sometimes I cover thoughts I have already had, moments already experienced. Most days, mixed in there, I do an assessment of how I feel, how my form feels, how fast or slow I'm going. I also notice the nature around me; little bunnies on the path, animals scurrying for cover, and other people out for their run, walk or bike ride. I enjoy seeing and hearing the birds as they chirp and sing, too. I'm thankful to be able to be running.
