Distance PRs

I've gotten some new followers lately, so if that's you, welcome! I have already been trying to catch up on everyone's blogs, which has been great, but leads to a slight attack of the hair horns.  What does hair horns have to do with anything?

Just reading blogs shouldn't give you hair horns, right?

This is me. Reading your blog. 

The fact that I usually do it like this is the problem

 A word of advice: don't leave your hair in a towel for an hour, or else you'll end up being mistaken for Albert Einstein's twin. Or Willy Wonka.    

Last week was a huge milestone for me, because it was a distance pr.  Yes, I realize that 7 miles is just a walk in the park for most of you, but the farthest I'd previously gone was 10k.  My "long run" for last week ended up being 7.18 miles.  This was so exciting, because I never would've dreamed that I would be able to run that far.  A few months ago running 3 was a huge accomplishment for me - something I never thought I would hardly be able to do.  For the next few weeks, each week will be a new distance PR!

Next month we'll be making a trip to Malawi to do some Bible teaching, and I've been working on a lesson to teach some girls.  We actually went there 5 years ago, and that was the first time I'd ever been to Africa.  I'm excited to go back and see the people, and also see how my perspective has changed in the time that we've lived here since then.  Anyway, my lesson is almost finished, and I think it will be really good!

What's something you've been excited about?

Are you training for a race? 

Also, give me your opinion on the new header!
