Tuesday

So how are you this morning? It's Tuesday, and I'm looking forward to it. I hope you are. Yesterday was good but busy. I don't know why, but there seemed to be a lot more going on yesterday than usual. It was all good. I did notice a very bright moon last night, so I wonder if there is a correlation? I'm half way joking, so don't think I'm a lunatic or something like that.

Today I wrestle more with the Story of God. Trying to summarize and capture the essence of Exodus through Deuteronomy is quite a task, just like capturing the essence of Genesis was. I do think, however, this week will be a little easier. There is more of a linear easier to follow flow to the Story, I think. I have lots of reading and processing to do today, which I find very enjoyable.

Well, I went to the pool last night. Progress! That's the right word. I made progress last night. I'm certainly getting more comfortable in the water and made several trips from one end to the pool to the other. There are so many parts to swimming. If you have children, please teach them to swim while they are young. This last line was sponsored by an old dog learning a new trick.

I ran easy yesterday, thinking ahead somewhat to this evening. Tempo Tuesday! Tonight is the 3 mile version. Two miles of warm-up, 3 miles of tempo, followed by 2 miles of cool-down. I am shooting for a 6.35 pace, which is out of my comfort zone and would/will be the fastest I've run in years. I don't know if I can do it, but I'm going to try. If I can/do, then I am thinking of trying to find a 5K and look to go under 20 minutes, which would stretch me out just a little further.

I hope your day goes well!
