Day 22

I had no intention of being up this late today, but sometimes life happens.  And that's really what I'm trying to do here anyway--embrace life.  So, faced with the choice of either slogging through Nashville traffic at the start of rush hour or taking a detour, I waited out the traffic at Centennial Park with my kids.  We got home pretty late, went shopping, got home even later, had dinner, and started planning tomorrow's festivities.  It was a perfectly good afternoon of the type I'd love to have many more of.  And that's the goal.

I'm up another 2 lbs., making a total of 10 gained and bringing my weight up to 162.  I added 2k to my biking and 50m to my swimming this morning, so I've got a big goal set for next Friday.  It'll be after the challenge is complete, and it will be my victory lap for my cardio.  It's 1 mile running, 10k biking, and 500m swimming.  I've never been much of a runner, and this will be the first time I've run a full mile since probably freshman year of high school.

This morning I prayed for believers in Morocco.  Three Christians were arrested there at the beginning of this month, and it is believed that a list of other believers was leaked to the authorities.  One of the men is still in custody, presumably for the crime of proselytizing.  Talking about Christ is legal there, but conversion to another faith is not.
