To celebrate my birthday I signed up for a 5K in Niagara Falls. 25 years ago I took my first breath and as I did, doctors were busy telling my parents that I wouldn't take very many more. I was too small and my lungs were too fragile. Today many of my favorite things to… Continue reading Runnin’ the Race {God-Sighting Saturday}

Just hold on…
About a mile into my morning run yesterday, I stopped to wait for a car to pass at an intersection and noticed this little guy (or lady) hanging out on my running shorts. You can imagine my surprise when I arrived home four MILES later, to find him still clinging to the bright blue cotton.… Continue reading Just hold on…
On Hand-Holding…
I see it as the preschool students walk through the halls of church, delighting in the fact that it's their turn to slip their tiny fingers into the slightly larger ones of the teacher. Or as my "Little Sister" (through Big Brothers Big Sisters) finds a way to juggle the stuff she's carrying just so… Continue reading On Hand-Holding…
100 miles… for Sam
For a few months I was doing really well with the whole "exercise" thing in life, but recently I shifted things in my morning routine and am finding it difficult to carve out a new time (and more importantly, motivation) to workout. As I pondered this issue this morning and wondered what might re-motivate me… Continue reading 100 miles… for Sam
CCA and Williamsville South
After a week off, I was back prayer-running yesterday morning. I think I'm about halfway through the schools, though it's hard to tell since some of them are close enough to double up... like I did yesterday with Central Christian Academy and Williamsville South High. Below are some of the things I prayed for/experienced while… Continue reading CCA and Williamsville South
More prayer than running, but a prayer run none the less…
I received the following post from a high school parent on Facebook: Bekah I think that Williamsville North needs a prayer run Somewhat "excited" (not the right word) that I had a clear answer of where my next prayer run should take place, I replied asking her to let me know if she had specific… Continue reading More prayer than running, but a prayer run none the less…
Kenmore West and St. Joseph’s Prayer Run
NOTE BEFORE I GET INTO TODAY'S RUN: If I continue kind of taking you through step by step of each journey, we'd be here (me writing/you reading) all day. So I'm just going to share bits and pieces or highlights. However, if you ever want to know more, I love talking about these runs! Before… Continue reading Kenmore West and St. Joseph’s Prayer Run
NT Prayer Run – This World Has Nothing For Me
As I pulled into the parking lot at Payne Park to begin my run this morning, I knew I must be close to the high school simply by the large number of high school aged youth walking, riding bikes, and getting out of carpool vans all heading in the same general direction. In my prayers… Continue reading NT Prayer Run – This World Has Nothing For Me
Kenmore East Prayer Run
So I started this "prayer run" idea thinking that I'd be running with purpose. However, I discovered that the opposite was true as well... having a purpose got me to run. Nothing about this morning said, "looks like a great morning for a run!" I had played volleyball for a few hours last night, which… Continue reading Kenmore East Prayer Run
Tomorrow’s the day!
