13.1

Hello! Hope you have all had a great weekend so far!

I have had several people ask me about the process I went through, and how I prepared for the half marathon (13.1) that I ran, September 2013.

April 1, 2013, I started "a mile day", and I did that for 3 months straight. 
At the beginning of my 3rd month, 
"a mile a day" became too easy, 
so I would purposely miss days, so that I would have to run 3 miles at a time instead of just the 1. 

on the day of my 90th mile, so at the end of June, I came across the Panhandle Marathon Run in Lubbock Texas, the run would take place September 29, 2013, making it exactly 12 weeks away from race day. They had a 12 week training schedule on the site that I just printed off, and started following. I would run Sundays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, & Saturdays.
 On Mondays and Fridays, I would do body strengthening circuits. 



I love to run, so that makes a huge difference in anything that I do. 
(I'm sure you can relate)

I do have to say that my 13.1, was the most challenging thing that I have done thus far in my life. Mentally, physically, and even spiritually.


I caught a stomach virus week 9 of training for my run. 
It was awful, & the following week (week 10), I felt too weak to run such long distances. 
So I went a total of two weeks without running, 
and so I gave up, 
I was NOT going to run the 13.1 that I had been working hard at for the past 5 1/2 months.

Before I caught the stomach virus, the most I had ran at a time was 6 miles, 
and throughout the 2 weeks that I missed in my training, 
I would have completed a 9 mile run , week 9, 
and 10 mile run, week 10. 
So I was just really starting to doubt myself.

While having this pity party one day after work, 
Steven told me that that was the silliest thing that he had ever heard, 
and for me to get my butt off the couch, and go run. 
He left the room, and began to workout in his weight room... 
I waited for him to come back and tell me that he understood, 
and would be behind me any decision I made. 
So, I waited. 

and I waited.

Ya, he never came.

So, I got my butt off the couch, and I ran, and I ran, and I ran till I reached 12 miles that night, 
and it was awesome. 
It took me 2 hours, and 10 minutes. 
After 6 miles my legs were just on autopilot mode. & I couldn't fill a thing, but most importantly, even though Satan was trying to steal my thunder, and all that I had worked so hard for, with every cheer that came through my headphones (thank you Nike Running App), and with every worship song to follow, and having Steven walking toward me, meeting me at Dalhart elementary to help me home the rest of the way, because I couldn't feel my body after 12.1 miles were complete.......
I showed Satan, that I AM ABLE.


*******

During my training, I read a lot of different runners blogs, 
and I didn't do, not one thing they did, as far as preparing for my race day, 
other than having a 12 week running/training schedule to go by.

They all stated that it was important to change your diet during your 13.1 training.
I didn't change my diet, & I was fine.

Mind you, this worked for me, & I am no professional, just sharing my 13.1 journey.

They all stated NOT to buy anything new to wear for your race day.
I think everything I wore on my race day was new, & I bought the day before, except for my shoes.

They all stated to have extra water on you while running. Like the waist belts that have two or three water bottles attached to it.
I did not, I can barely walk and talk at the same time, much less try to drink, and run at the same time. I did stop at the water stations along the way throughout my race, 
but I stopped, drank, and then started running again. 
I just can't have a lot of stuff on me while running. 
It's just your personal preference. For me this idea would be a disaster.

They all stated to get enough sleep the night before your race.
I went to bed at midnight, because my cousin was giving me a manicure and pedicure. 

They all stated to eat something light after your 13.1 run.
my family, and I went to Golden Corral after my race, 
and we did what most people do, that go there. 
We ate.... a lot. =)

*******
Pre-Race Day


I went to pick up my packet, and they had this vendor set up, they sold great headbands that actually stay on my head for just $8.00!! I should have got more than just one, 
and then I made one of the best purchases, ever. 
I highly recommend these compression sleeves for your shins/calves, 
my legs didn't cramp up once during my race.


*******

Race Day

I woke up 2 hours before my race. 

For breakfast:
I ate a granola bar, and had some water.

Got to the race, I went to crazy long line at the porta-potty to empty my bladder.

Told Steven to hold my jacket.

Went to the starting line, and waited for the race to start.

The weather was beautiful, and the race was very organized, and operated rather nice.

Along the way there were people holding up awesome signs that said things like 
"I don't know you, but good job! Only 12 more miles to go!"
And.......

(haha)

During my training I began to use every mile I ran each day to pray for someone different. 
So I had 13 people in mind this very day, and used every mile to pray for an individual. 
I had such great friends sending cheers through my headphones, 
and my best friend waiting for me at the finish line. 

I struggled half way through my race, 
but just like any other time I ask the Lord for his help, 
I got it, 
and he helped me push through.

all was going so well, I was completing my 10th mile, 
turning the corner to start mile 11, 
& when I do, 
it was every runners nightmare, 
it was all uphill. 
(meh.)

(Touche)

At mile 11, I thought I was dead.
At mile 12, I thought.... I wished I was dead.
At mile 13, I realized I had become too tough to kill.

I really have no words to express how accomplished I felt crossing the finish line.



I placed 83rd out of 300 girls, 
and 193rd out of 506 overall finishers (girls and guys).

*******

You can do anything you set your mind to, 
has always been such a cliche saying to me, 
until now,
because it really is so true.

YOU CAN DO ANYTHING,  
YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO.

*******

Be blessed. Be loved.

So if I can wish favor over one of the teams,

*NEW* 10 things I love this Monday!

So.... Not everyone is too hot about "Monday's".....
Or is it just me? 

I mean there's no real good explanation as to why I've not been a fan of Mondays.

Now Monday evenings, I've loved, they've been mine and Bonnie's date night, but now they are on Tuesday's... So today I was thinking, maybe I should start doing 10 things I love, on Monday's instead of Sundays like I use to! Awesome, now I can take the whole day, and instead of focusing on such things as: its the first day of the week.  it's so long until Friday... Because it's just Monday, I can think of 10 things I love, and share them :)

So here are my 10 things I love this Monday! 

********

1.) 
Great show!

2.) 
My new refrigerator :)

3.) 
My new beautiful table (that holds those heavenly things!!)

4.) 
My sister showed me this website last night!!!! Love it! Check it out!!

5.) 
My iPad :) we are friends.

6.) 
Oh my gravy!!!! I love this show!! Any faithful revenge people???

7.) 

These pants!
I told Steven I would like to look for a keyboard for my iPad, and this is what he found! 
Brilliant!! 

8.) 

I love these cars! I am aiming to get a new car before summer, Steven says no to this one, because we'd have to vacuum the dashboard... And that's just weird. 
Per him. Not me. I love it! 

9.) 
Yoga. It's awesome. Seriously. 

10.) 
Cody Johnson's new CD! Get it!

Long time no blog!!

Hello all!

Been awhile! 

Ok so I just want you all to know that this year, 2014, is going to be the BEST year yet. For me, and for you... I can just feel it!!!

Ok so a friend and I were talking the other day about how there are a lot of funnies on the web about "new year, new me"....More so leaning toward fitness. They are indeed funny, more so because everyone is usually all about fitness, and losing weight the month of January, annnnd usually the week before spring break. In reality we all know it doesn't work like that, reaching your goals  working out, or not comes with consistency, self push, mental strength, & never the mindset of failing!

Maybe your like me, and don't necessarily make any new years resolutions, because it just never seems to work out for you, seriously using less sticky notes, use to be on every new years resolution list, who am I kidding,  I just know I've killed a rainforest by now! 

So here are goals I've set for myself this 2014 year, and if they don't work out this year, I can always strive toward them next year, or until I do meet them. 
All of them!

1.) become a faithful yoga-er
2.) read 3 books.
3.) blog more
4.) start up my Photography again.
5.) buy a new car
 6.) buy a house
 7.) run another 13.1
8.) go to Washington DC
9.) eat less fast foods
10.) bless others.

What are your 2014 goals?? ( Please share your goals on Facebook blogger group if you don't know how to comment on here!!)



Be blessed. Be loved.

comfort zone.


hello. hello.

i hope every single one of you reading this know that i have missed blogging so much, 
i really have no excuse. 
i work, come home, and go for a run, every.single.day. 
So just like any other time I haven't blogged in a long time, I promise to do better... this time. =)

Ok so raise your hand if you've ever said these words "I will never...", 
Ok raise your hand if you have ever did the things you said "I will never..." about. 
Does that even make sense??

I seriously thought I would never wear, red lip stick

did it. and it was awesome.

I seriously thought I would NEVER be caught wearing a fedora.
also did that, and it is just as amazing as wearing a baseball cap, 
you don't have to fix your hair. 
awesome.

and lastly, I thought I would never be caught dead wearing colored or printed jeggings.
...... it happened. and I really really like them. so comfy! 

all that to say.... going out of my comfort zone has been rather nice, a little scary at first. 
with thoughts like... "what will others think", 
I'm sure you know exactly what I am talking about, 
but after just doing it.... the feeling of NEW and CHANGE has been very nice, 
set aside from the little UNCOMFORTABLE feeling(s) I had in the beginning that is.

***
The other day I was just sitting and thinking about all the things I have done the past year or so that have been way out of my comfort zone, and as I listed the things in my head I was actually very proud of myself.... 
and then the thought came to me, 
what have I done for God that has been out of my comfort zone. 
I named maybe 3 or 4 things.

It's scary when you climb outside of your comfort zone.

All those pesky fears hit you. The "what if I fall flat on my face, God?"

comfort zones are nice... but what is out there yet to discover-- 
about God, about yourself, about a bigger world than your comfort zone? 
It's a question posed to all of us at some time, and we can simply ignore it (a comfy way to handle it) or sign up for the adventure.

I have come up with three ways God might call us out of our comfort zones.

1.) To do more than you feel capable of...

What is our response to this call?

I've heard the saying, "God doesn't call the equipped; He equips those who He calls." And I believe that, but it's a joint effort. We trust that God knows what He's doing, that He knows us intimately and will lead every step of the way, and we begin to prayerfully learn and grow in that area.

We become equipped.

Is God calling you out of your comfort zone, and you know that you're not there yet?

Then you've just been handed a growth opportunity! Equipping is a life-long journey. It's study. It's getting around others with that same call. It's listening, and doing, and learning from your mistakes and growing past your inabilities. It's taking that first step, and the second, and following through with the third, and learn the skills, and to expand your mind, and to take the risk as you put it all in practice.

and over time you begin to see what God knew all along. 
He's still leading (He's always the one in front), but you have the tools you need.

2.) To stop being lazy

Ouch. That sounds so harsh, doesn't it? But this is where God is speaking to me lately. Not in a condemning way, but as an invitation. 
Comfort zones can become deep trenches where we can become downright stagnant. 

I have always loved running, and this month I have set a goal to run 1 mile every day, 
somehow I got behind 3 miles, ha! I may or may not have taken off this past weekend, oops, 


but during this time, I of course do a lot of thinking when I run and lately this has been so heavy on my heart...
that God is asking me to run my race a little stronger. 
to exercise my faith in God, 
to intentionally listen for His voice, 
to walk into new and even uncomfortable situations so that I can minister to those on God's heart.

This isn't about trying to earn God's love. We have that. 
It's climbing out of tradition, or apathy, or a fatih that has become status to run straight into the heart of God.

At first it won't be comfy at all, but you're strapping on your shoes, braving the chill or heat, and sharpening those spiritual muscles to feel the wind on your face as you run.

3.) To love

This may be our hardest comfort zone of all.

actually. just being honest. when "to love" kept coming to mind for the 3rd way God may be calling me out of my comfort zone, I brushed it off several times with thoughts like.... 
I do love, I love just about anyone I meet! 
Then a bigger picture was drawn out for me.

Sometimes it seems like our world is way messed up. 
And at a time like this, God's love should be a source of strength, comfort, and direction. 
But sadly we don't always do that, and that's just confusing to those who are on the outside looking in.

He calls us out of our comfort zone to love each other in the church.

To love our neighbors as ourselves.

To love our pastors. Our bosses. That lady who says all the wrong things and gets on your last nerve.

To love our President. To love those who believe differently than you.

To love your family, the ones we say we love the most, but who get the brunt of our unloving behavior.

It's far easier to stay in the comfort zone of our feelings 
(so we lash out, or withdraw, or react and walk away saying "they deserved that")

Loving others means we listen. We forgive. We climb out of our own way of doing things or thinking to notice the other person, rather than their lifestyle or their differences, so that we can truly love them, rather than just try to fix them. 
We say we are sorry. We hold our tongue. We respond with grace.

Not perfection, but asking God to help us love others like He loved(s) us.

So I've shared mine and I'm asking God to help me on yet another adventure. 
Where is He taking you?

***

I hope you all have a wonderful rest of the week!

LOVE YOU ALL!
Thanks so much for reading.

and like always,

BE BLESSED. BE LOVED.

to be known...

So the Lord said to Moses,
 “I will also do this thing that you have spoken; for you have found grace in My sight, 
and I know you by name.” -Exodus 33:17

This is the sweetest thing I have heard in a long time, if not ever. To know in all my impossibilities and heartaches that I have found grace in God’s sight, and even more... that HE KNOWS ME by name. I had to highlight the knows me part because when the world becomes overwhelming, and the struggles of life fall down upon me like an avalanche, the fact that God knows me by name reminds me of all the love He has for me, and all that is true in the world. It reminds me of all that really matters, and today I need to be reminded.

Every time I read this, I just weep because I see the love and kindness of my God and my heavenly Father pouring through the words above, and I need to know just how much He loves me. I don’t know why certain things happen in life, and I can’t see God’s plan or understand His way, but I know that He loves me and I know that He knows me, and that is enough. Much more than enough for me.

So, now as I get ready to head out on a journey today, I don’t know what lies ahead of me, but I thank God that before I go He has brought me to place similar to where He brought Moses. And I echo what Moses said after being overwhelmed by the circumstances around him, “Please, show me Your glory.” (v.18)

To see God’s glory is all I want in this moment, and it’s all that matters. 
And, maybe I am beginning to see a little bit of why God has brought me to this low point.

Finally, I love that God does not turn me away when I come to Him, but He answers my prayers and says, “I will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you.” (v.19) I absolutely need God’s goodness to pass before me, and I need to be near Him. I love that when I cry out to Him, he doesn’t leave it up to me, but he picks me up and places me close to Him, and sets me firmly upon the rock that is His Son and my Savior. “And the Lord said, “Here is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock.” (v.20) I need Him, and I need to be firmly standing on the Rock that is Jesus Christ when the storms of life rage upon me.

After I have looked at the Word of God, wrote down what God is speaking to me, and meditated on Him, I realize that I have had God’s goodness all along, I realize that I have been placed close to my Father, and I realize that I am suddenly standing firmly on the Rock that is Jesus Christ. How faithful is my God. Thank you Jesus.

hello pretties, I know it has been sometime since my last blog, and this may seem a little random. 
BUT this, just like any other blog of mine, was so heavy on my heart and 
I had the thought "I'm so going to blog this" more than once, 
and so I just knew that one, two, maybe even three of my readers needed this reminder, just as I did! THANK YOU FOR READING!!

Press In


Well hello there!

I have a lot of things that I refer to as my "favorite", for example when listening to my iPod
on shuffle.... I don't know how many times I catch my self saying 
"i love this song, it's my favorite" 
all within the same car setting. 
It's silly.

Speaking of "favorite", I have an absolutely favorite thing to do, 
and that is to worship on Sunday morning with my
church family. 
Literally gives me a happy heart just thinking about it! 
The past two Sundays at church have been 
incredible, 
just getting so lost in worship and feeling the Lords presence 
and just simply dwelling in such a sweet moment.


It is so good to taste and see that the Lord is good.
 Sometimes it's just coming into a environment like so ^ 
and just feeling the goodness and grace of God on his people 
and just enjoying it, 
receiving it, 
and saying 'God, you are so good", 
the past two services mentioned, 
I very much so felt his goodness, and his sweet grace...and it was awesome!

I just have such a heart for us in this season, 
and I say "season" because life is "seasonal", 
different things come and go in "seasons",
the Lord is in "seasons". 
But we are really in a season and in a culture 
where we are surrounded with things that allow us to stay busy 
and even with things like Twitter and Facebook, 
those kinds of things, 
we can not even be completely in touch with reality very often 
if we don't want to be. 
I believe that a lot of you can agree with me on that one...
I have had days that I was on Twitter so much that I felt
that I was best friends with Kim, Khloe, & Kourtney Kardashian....
or on Pinterest for hours "Repinning"/"Liking" things for my future home, 
or my future fairy tale wedding that I long to have, 
and then a customer walks into the bank..
 and it's "Oh hey Malorie... back to reality!!" 
That's probably a silly
example, but the funny thing is...
 a lot of us can relate to some thing of that sort.

Now days we could just text and not even have to talk to people... 
(in some instances that would be nice, very nice, if my phone didn't receive calls.haha)

Some of us can even talk to a robot inside of our phone named Siri that can look up everything.

I mean it's just funny to me how our culture is, but you know what, as believers, we can NOT be
defined by our culture, outside of the four walls, we've got to stay connected to the Lord in reality.

And here is what I mean by that, 
that we can't just be so quick to download the next BIG app that is our "devotional"
with the Lord, but it's my heart that as believers, as people of God, 
we would press into his presence, 
just between us and him, 
and that no matter how busy things can be around us, 
that that would be our #1 thing.

I was talking to a friend some time back and he began to talk about Heaven.. and what it will be like.

In Revelation Chapter 2 it says, 
I know you and I know the things that make your heart beat... 
it's really a cool little scripture there, it goes on to say, 
I know the things that you are passionate about and I even know the things that you hate, 
... I know that you are doing things in my name and 
you're not even growing weary for my name sake
That to me sounds like somebody who is pretty healthy, 
if you're not growing weary for his name sake, 
you're running the race, 
you're spending time with him... 
things like that, 
but here's what it says at the end of that verse... it says 
"But I've got one thing against you,
that you've left your first love"

And I think that we fall and pray to this many times, 
in many areas of our lives, 
where we've allowed ourselves to be defined by the things outside of church,
not just outside of the four walls, 
but I'm talking about the culture of us being believers, 
that we've allowed ourselves to just become so busy that these kinds of
moments of getting lost in the goodness and grace of the Lord, 
are not very normal in our lives sometimes.

BUT.... I think they need to be, especially in our own time, just between us and the Father. 

If you've been walking in areas of anxiety, 
depression, 
feeling like you're overwhelmed with life, 
needing incredibly large answers from the Lord, 
I would bet to say or venture to say, 
you've got to press into him,
 get alone at your house and just silence everything else 
and lean into the Father. 
He's in pursuit of our hearts, 
ALL the time.


Let's be known as worshippers, Amen. 
Those who worship the Lord in spirit and in truth. 
That that would not be said of us, 
that we've left out first love, 
but that we are madly in love with our Father. 
He is so good.

I refer a lot of things in my life to music (but you already know that thou.)
So of course while blogging, there was one song that kept coming to me. 
The Heart of Worship. Some of you may know it.

(no picture, just sound, click play)



*******
When the music fades
And all is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that's of worth
That will bless your heart

I'll bring you more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what you have required
You search much deeper within
Through the ways things appear
You're looking into my heart

I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about You
It's All about You, Jesus
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about you
It's all about You Jesus
*******

I pray God we make it about you again
Thank you for reminding us, 
that your presence is all we need,
when your presence comes it's like nothing else, 
we can hear your voice Lord and we know what you are saying to us, 
we feel near to you, 
Thank you for the beauty of your holiness, 
God like in Psalm 27 when it says, 
One thing that I seek 
and that I desire, is that I would dwell in the house of the Lord, 
to gaze upon the beauty of my God, 
Father I pray that we would desire that..
Every.single.day, 
Lord that you would break depression and anxiety off of the people reading this, 
I ask in the name of Jesus, 
that your presence would come and invade every heart, 
Thank you so much for loving us, 
Lord teach us and help us to do this in our homes and in our cars again, 
some of us are good at that but some of us need to learn and
 I pray that you teach us Lord..to press in, 
and to feel your presence, and to ask for your presence to fill our homes, 
May we be people who are after your heart God. 
Not what you can do. 
Not the answers that we need from you, 
but your presence Lord, 
to commune and to be in a relationship with you God. 
Thank you for reminding us to just quiet ourselves, and to worship you....
because you are good. 
Amen.

Be Blessed. Be Loved People!
