5 Days until the half marathon...

5 Days away from the half a marathon and I literally have knots in my stomach. Can I finish? I've only gotten to 10 miles before... I know that seems like a lot, but that means that I have 3 MORE miles after that grouling 10 I did on Saturday.  I literally couldn't get off the living room floor for 20 minutes after that run.  I'm super nervous about this.  I just want to cross the finish line.  And in reality, I just want that 13.1 bumper sticker. Yep....that's right... this chick is THAT externally motivated. Thank you.  I think that with the help my cheering squad (elizabeth and rosemary) who will be running the race with me, the three of us can push each other to crawl our way over the finish line.  God is gonna have to help me out with this one... Its going to be ther toughest thing I've literally EVER done.

Would I believe You when You would say

Your hand will guide my every way
Will I receive the words You say
Every moment of every day

Well I will walk by faith
Oh even when I cannot see it
Well because this broken road
Prepares Your will for me
Help me to win my endless fears
You've been so faithful for all my years
With the one breath You make me
Your grace covers all I do
Yeah, yeah , yeah, yeah, yeah

Well I will walk by faith
Oh even when I cannot see it
Well because this broken road
Prepares Your will for me

Well I'm broken, but I still see Your face
Well You've spoken, pouring Your words of grace
Well I will walk by faith
Oh even when I cannot see it
Well because this broken road
Prepares Your will for me

Well I will walk by faith
Oh even when I cannot see it
Well because this broken road
Prepares Your will for me

Well Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Well Hallelujah, Hallelujah
(I will walk by faith, I will walk by faith
I will walk by faith, I will walk by faith)
Well Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Well Hallelujah, Hallelujah


God, please give me strength to cross that finish line.  I'm going to have to dig deep and crawl if I have to.  Through my blood, sweat and tears, I WILL cross that finish line; hands raised high and God carrying me the last 3 miles...  I'm gonna need all the help I can get.

5 Days... and counting.
