A Creative Purpose

Second trail run on Jeju. I was ready for more mud and was amazed how ppl didn’t want to get muddy…like why sign up for a trail run if you aren’t ready to get dirty.

Growing up running I know you have to run your own race and yet today I had to talk that into being yet again. Funny how some things in life circle around and around. But the good thing is with time and effort it doesn’t take as long to get back on track.

Thankful I can still enjoy a 10k with beautiful people in amazing places.

The last slide is from last year and some Korean YouTuber that was documenting her race and I got to be a witness. Kinda fun.

Grandma Geidel- she lived long and loved well.

I’m thankful to be a witness to her unwavering faith and she’d remind me that God’s got it so I lean into that.

I’ll cherish all the items that were made by her hands and will think of her often when I have a needle and thread in mine.

My love of flowers is shared with her and when I see gladiolus she is the first one I think of as they were her favorite.

It’ll be sweet to see her written recipes and make more of what she starred as her favorites as she has good taste.

I love you, Grandma and thanks for the example of living life well loving others.

Another 10k in the books. The wind really helped or it wasn’t measured right as my time wasn’t too bad😆. Thankful my achilles and hip pain didn’t flare up until the end.
