Just a Boy and his Papa..

Sure the marathon training schedule read that this weekend was an 18 miler.   Saturday I've been running with a great group of spiritual guys. Its a nice mini escape.  But its 30 minutes away.  It would need to be out there long before 5am to be back in time for when the rest of the guys would show up.

So I decided to go today.  At the last minute I change my long river run route, to doing 3 6 mile loop around the neighborhood.  Why I dunno.  but then it hit me in the middle of lap one.   E1.  If he's up after the 2nd lap, he can ride his bike with me.   The Father/Son Run/Bike I've been waiting for.  It just might work.

I stopped at the house, asked when he needed to be back for swimming. we had time!  Quick E, get your stuff were going out.  As he's rushing, he didn't even know where or for what.  What a trooper.  He was stronger on the hills even.  I thought I would need to keep up with him, but 6miles was still a bit of a long
ride for him.

We had some time together.  So some of nature's early morning friends (all the animals are out early morning if you didn't know).  Good time.  Not sure what the rest of the day will hold (except for sore legs for me), but  the day sure started off awesome.  Thanks E!  And thank you Lord for the opportunity.

Peace
