the favorite part of my run was heading out from the park to the suncoast (north) a doe ran past quickly followed by a buck who was in hot pursuit. his antlers were at least 18 inches. i saw many deer but never a buck before. the birds would fly and land just in front of our path and then fly ahead. talk about a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. reminded constantly of our Lord who is more then wonderful and who is the grand creator. the entire run was great except for the last mile where i torqued by hip joint and right now i'm have a heating pad on my rump. i am so glad that the run was effortless and how relaxed i felt. i had no stress or anything negativity on this run save the last half or so. i realize that the marathon will be as successful as i make it. i can run competitively. the last few long runs have been effortless and joyful entertaining and blissful if i want more from the time i have to work. i enjoy having the girls to run with. they make my time more enjoyable and have added something special to this process.
