It's a marathon, not a sprint...literally!



One of the reasons I enjoy running marathons is that it so very much resembles life itself. Our desires, our wants, our needs are all usually what we earn and reaching those benchmarks in life takes time.

Running marathons remind me of how important each and every moment of each and every day truly is in the grand scheme of things. I don't want to appear arrogant, but I live an incredibly blessed life and having the health and drive to run marathons is one of God's gifts that I hold very dear and certainly do not take for granted.

As I write this, I am currently in the Grand Cayman's having run the beautiful island. As you can see from the picture, you can see in my eyes the realization of just how blessed I truly am.

Merry Christmas, and check back often for more pictures!

Hey buddy,

Just came across you Blog, good stuff. Hope you and Debra have a merry Xmas and a great New Year. The boys and I will be in Mexico over the holidays. Maybe we will swing through OKC on our way back to WI.
