Great Sunday

Today was an incredible day. We had intended to wake up around 5:15, drive downtown and run 7 miles. Unfortunately Mother Nature had other ideas as the weather was rainy with thunderstorms. I would have enjoyed running in the cool rain, but didn't want to dodge lightning bolts. So the alarm was reset and we got up for church.

NewSpring was off the chart today. The final day in the You Asked for It series, Are We In The End Times? The service started out with the band absolutely rocking out the place. Clayton King stepped in for Perry Noble today and hit a home run. How many times are you disappointed when church service is over? And to top it off, over 200 committed their lives to Christ today at the various services in Greenville & Anderson.

We had another fun lunch with our friends Eric & Robin. First time at Mimi's Cafe and it was really good. I'm guessing we'll head back again in the near future.

After a brief "rest" at home, we headed back downtown for the Drive game. This was a group night for Girls on the Run. Our seats were in right field, exposed to the warm direct sunlight. We stayed for about 6 innings, and then headed off for our run.

The plan was 7 miles, but it was hot and had been a long weekend. The 7 became 3 miles and we walked the last 1.8 miles back to the car. I wore my brand new Brooks Adrenaline 8's. Some minor left leg and left heel discomfort, but nothing horrible. Hoping for a better training week starting tomorrow. After the run, we stopped at Olive Garden before heading home.
