At this point I'm making a plea to all who are willing. I need the prayers of whoever is willing to offer them. I should be running leg #3 (6.8miles) on Friday morning around 9:45am MST; leg #15 (4.9miles) on Friday night around 7pm MST; leg #27 (7.7miles) by about 6:30am MST on Saturday.
These are my concerns and my personal prayers:
- Please may my body be able to handle any heat that I may be in.
- Please let the resting I've done be enough for my right foot.
- Please let the never-ending lack of sensation in my left knee not be an issue, especially in the two big descents at the beginning and then the end of leg twenty-seven when I'm especially worn out.
- Please let there be a headwind as I descend the big hills in leg twenty-seven.
- Please let my mind be strong and focused.
I am so very thankful for the blessings I've been given to get to this point. It's not by talent. It's by making a decision, committing to the details and then submitting myself to God; who has given me so much. To Don, thank you for helping me find my courage without being afraid to act on it.
GOOD LUCK! Amazing. I will be there, not running, I am the mascot or the water boy, or something like that. I will look for you, but just know that I am cheering for you too! It makes me so happy that you are doing this. :0)
