Stoopid cold knocked me out for an entire week... so I missed a week's worth of training. Sunday morning, I forced myself to trudge through a 2 mile run. Ugh... the 2 miles felt like 20!!
Tonight... I tried to get back on schedule. But I got home late. Made dinner late. Fed Nui-nui late. And I had a million and one excuses to "rest" another night. Boy was the inertia immense! But thankfully, Nui-nui's roseola is subsiding. She slept with not fighting and by 9PM, I was out trotting with the wind.
6 miles later... barely even winded! Easily could've done another 2-3 miles. But let's take it one step at a time.
Doesn't this sound like your typical spiritual walk (or run?) You're going steadily for a few weeks or a few months. Then all of a sudden BOOM!!, you get side tracked. You get sick... or OT... or biz-trip... or you have a kid...or two... or friends from outta town. And your rhythm gets out of whack.
Just when you think it's time to "rest" another day.... why you don't you make a commitment to the Lord and say, "Jesus... I want to start running with you again." It won't be easy but before you know it... you'll be back on that proverbial wagon.
Mood: half-accomplished
