Determination

So we've been running straight now for 2 weeks. 
It's been a little harder to get going this year than it was last year but hopefully when it starts warming up for good then the more steady the group will be. 

I need motivation. 
It's SO easy for me to get discouraged and want give an excuse why I don't feel like running on any particular day, but I know that if I just get out there and make the effort, the LORD alone will give me the strength I need to do it.

I pray for that determination back like I had last year.
In my mind I think that I'm supposed to be where I left off last year when I got sick and that's just not possible.
I was out for 5 months.

I'm having to teach my body how to run all over again.

If I want what I had last year bad enough, I'll run even when I don't want to and even if I'm tired. 


PAIN IS WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BODY

Few things that stood out to me this past week....

Jackie and Lindsey are too cute out there running in their little pregnant bellies.
I give it to them hands down

Don't know if I could do it if I were in their shoes
So proud of ya'll

Laura Almond is a new girl this year and I must say she is killing it!
You go girl

Brittney Little blew me away the other night. I think she almost ran the entire 3 miles without stopping.
Huge

Of course Haley B is a beast and is determined to run the entire thing without stopping, and thanks to  Eminem, he will help her do that with his incredible beat in "Lose yourself" 
(as long as she doesn't get distracted by a dog along the way that is)

Everyone is doing SO good and so proud.
If you come out to tackle 3 miles several times a week, YOU'RE DETERMINED

Right now we have about 7 on a regular basis, but hoping it will increase

I know the times we run makes it difficult for some to make it, but when the time changes, hopefully we can push it back some and more will be able to make it.

It's not the safest thing running the dark

Ready to start them races!!!

I need some pictures up

SHIRTS ...SHIRTS... SHIRTS

Here is a preview of what the shirts are going to look like...
This is not the exact color... the ones I am ordering are a turquoise whereas these are a little more blue.
You probably aren't able to read it, but on the sleeve of the right arm, it says Mark 9:23 which reads "Everything is possible for one who believes"

OPTION 1
I love the look of this one, but I'm not sure how well you will be able to see DIG if it's on the bottom of the shirt
runnerhigh is a little lower in this preview than the other one. It will be higher on the actual shirt like it is in Option 2


OPTION 2
This is the other option that I believe will be easier to read.

  •  100% cotton
  • Regular T-Shirt 
  • $15 
  • One of a kind
  • Made for girls who love to run!


I love the look of it because it's very clean and easy to read.
We tried many other fonts but none looked as good

I want to try and place the order early next week, but in order to do that, I'm going to need to know sizes and how many to order.

Email me at haleygraydon@gmail.com or just let me know

SOOO excited to finally have these made
LOVE

Come on with Spring

So I went out for the first time Monday afternoon
The weather was absolutely perfect...It was different running in LP while it was dark

We had decided before we took off that we weren't going to overdue it first time back in LP, that we were just going to go to the guard shack and come back (which is still about 2 1/2 miles)


It was a very good run.
We had 3 new girls come to run that route and they killed it.

I could feel it the next day that's for sure.
Ready for the next one...

I should have more info on the shirts today, so next time we run I can let ya'll see.

I know I'm not able to run today but others might be.
I have something to attend. Some are going to a Zumba class in Pinson

It's tooo cold for me anyways.. burrr
