Going the Distance



Check out these ROCK STARS!! Just to give you a frame of reference - they are swimming 2.4 miles, biking 112 miles and running a marathon - a mere 26.2 miles! If you watch closely, you can see the winner's time 8:22:36! Wow! It takes me 2 hours to run 10 miles. I like the song a lot. It is not about the winner but the guy that keeps going even though the crowd has left and the trophy has been claimed. I'm going to watch this before I leave for the race on Sunday.

...Let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross...Hebrews 12:1-2
