15 years ago tomorrow I made decision to start my running journey. I found a running app, read about starting an active journey and pulled out a pair of shoes I used to play other sports. I had a lot of learning to do! 😆. I committed to give God the glory for every step and off I went! Looking back I would have saved a lot of time hiring a running coach but honestly at the time, financially, it wasn’t an option.
Over 10,000 miles later I can stay the decision to start my exercise journey was one of the best decisions of my life. Physically speaking in 2011, I wasn’t the biggest guy, but I felt sluggish, lazy and had low energy amongst other things. I had to make a change. Before my running journey my activity was playing basketball maybe once a week. Just not enough.
I can’t express enough how important it is to take a step of faith and make the decision to get active physically with movement of you haven’t already. Whether walking, running or cycling make the lifestyle change today. Incorporate prayer while exercising and see God move in your life in a powerful way. You got this - Let’s go!! God is with you.
Today’s run / walk with my good friend Lei was a great time of fellowship.
