Month: February 2014

Thank you.

February 26, 2014February 26, 2014 ~ Elizabeth W ~ 1 Comment

I wanted to post this on Facebook, but it got too long... so here it is. My emotions are running high this week (and today I'm hopped up on Sudafed, because of course I would get sick this week), but you can be assured that I mean every word. As this deployment comes to a … Continue reading Thank you.

Approaching homecoming

Jemez Mtn 50K Training: Week 1

February 16, 2014February 16, 2014 ~ Elizabeth W ~ 2 Comments

Welcome to my chronicles of 50K training, the craziest and longest race I will run so far. I wrote weekly updates when I ran the Illinois Marathon in 2011 (three years already?!) and it gave me something to look back at and see how I was progressing more than just looking at my Nike+ app. … Continue reading Jemez Mtn 50K Training: Week 1

He is mine, and I am His.

The more I know Him, the more I want to know Him. The more I love Him, the more I want to love Him. It seems impossible that my heart can continue expanding in order to contain more love, and yet I know my love will never match the weight of His sacrifice. I am utterly … Continue reading He is mine, and I am His.

Back from running sabbatical

February 8, 2014February 8, 2014 ~ Elizabeth W ~ 1 Comment

I ran a total of 42.2 miles in January. After some high-mileage months (for me) with 80, 90, even 100 miles, I really needed a break. I was mentally exhausted from training and final exams and just stuff, and realized that "sleeping in" (ahem, 7:30 am) and enjoying coffee in the morning was all it was … Continue reading Back from running sabbatical
