67 Days Left

Rode 10 miles yesterday. It didn't go as well as I had hoped. I thought with all the exercise I got at Christian Athletic Camp I'd be fine. I'm getting nervous I won't make it. 67 days doesn't seem like a long time. This weekend I'm going to try the unpaved part of the trail and that will be a huge test. One thing CAC got me used to was sweating, that's just normal for me now.

Matt and I are now on day 10 of being apart. I'm not the greatest at being alone (that's why I got married, right...). The hard part is that I went from being around 250 people 24 hours a day to being around a dog. It's very odd. Although, Meadow and I are doing a good job of feeling as much love as what is at CAC. :) She definitely missed me.

Today, rode uphill 1.5 miles to my parents. I'm waiting for that ride to get easier. Also went to the bike shop to get my brakes fixed and my seat fixed. Although, my dad fixed my seat, not the shop. I started this post this morning thinking something brilliant would come to me by the end of the day...not so much.

NEVER LET GO

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know you are near

And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You

This song is stuck in my head.
