Gadgets

On this morning's walk/run I got to try out my new Go Belt-the original No Bounce Runner's Belt.  I have to say - I LOVED IT!  It worked exactly like all the reviews proclaimed - my iphone fit in the large pocket perfectly.  When I got home, I was looking all over for my phone until I realized I was still wearing it!  So comfortable, doesn't bounce or get in the way.  It will hold my chapstick, keys, hydration tablets, gel, bandaids and any other "gadget" I'll need for the marathon.  Now, I'm waiting, waiting, waiting for my new UV Ladies Moisture Absorbing Sweatband Cap.  Thanks, Leslie, Linda and Vivian (my sisters and mother-in-law)  for my Amazon Gift Cards!!!!

I usually walk alone but today I had two companions that kept me going. . .the wind and the rain.  They both were at my back and sure helped me home in record time!  Sometimes I think having a friend to train with would be fun and challenging but so far no one has come along that shares this interest!  (If you're out there, please let me know!)  However, I never really feel "alone" when I'm walking.  I enjoy the solitude.  It gives me time to enjoy creation and time to reflect.  My mind tumbled upon this thought today - If I were to ever get a tatoo (so far I haven't thought of a good enough reason to get one) I think I would get one on my foot and it would say "He walks with me" because no matter where I go, God does go with me.  So, I really am never alone.  It doesn't mean I won't get tired or sore or stumble or fall or get hurt - but when I do there's someone there to help me get back up again.
