Bike path

I've never really been a runner....but, how can I not be when I have this paved path across the street (which is also right along the beach)?! So, Aaron and I have signed up for the Great Aloha Run in February....which means I need to run...a lot. Whether we are running, walking, or biking on the path, Duke and I always enjoy the sound of the waves crashing, the sweet smell of tropical flowers lining the path, and the fact that even though we are new here, we always run into someone we know (or someone who knows us!). :)

Another wonderful thing that the bike path provides me is time by myself to think and pray. Anyone who knows me even a little bit knows that I'm an introvert. I NEED 'alone' time to survive. :) And God created me, so He definitely knows my needs! He knew how much of a blessing it would be to have this beautiful, refreshing time with Him even while I'm red in the face, covered in sweat, and hardly breathing! :) I am so thankful that I have such a loving God who takes care of me!
