Your bear comment made me actually laugh out loud.  I was thinking something similar just the other day and concluded that it would probably be easier to just concede to being eaten because I would never get away.  Good for you for starting with some running!  I look forward to following in your footsteps.

I'm glad to bring you laughter!  And glad I'm not the only one who has those thoughts :P  

It was really scary and intimidating for me to make the transition to attempting to run, it seemed super intimidating.  I hope it gets easier every time!

Your subject line made me SMILE :) :) 

GOOD FOR YOU! Pat on the back. You should be proud!!

What shall I return to the Lord for all his bounty to me? 

I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord,  I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful ones.  

O Lord, I am your servant; I am your servant, the child of your serving girl. You have loosed my bonds. -- Psalm 116:12-16
