It is inevitable for most runners that the theme from "Rocky" (along with "Chariots of Fire") goes running through your head. From the former is this post title taken.
And I am "feelin' strong now." Yesterday's 5.3 very hilly uphill run finished at a 10:12 pace, pulled along (as usual!) by running partner Priscilla. I got 8.5 hours of uninterrupted sleep last night. I am hydrating well. I will get to bed early again tonight, and have a 1/2 workday tomorrow. Doing all the right things gives me confidence.
I am also excited about the number of prayer requests I have received. Later today I will put them in orderly form and figure out a way (maybe laminating them) to carry them with me.
The laptop will go with me to Scranton, so I'll keep you updated from there. If more donations arrive today, I'll update with a post tomorrow.
Otherwise, despite the aforementioned musical themes, I have to keep telling myself to rest, rest, rest. These last couple days before the race, most runners get a bit hyper. I'm no exception. And pray, pray, pray for all those in need and whom we serve.
