WEEK 5 MILEAGE FORM

…………………………

How was week 5 for YOU?? We had “winter-ish” weather come back for a coupe days here in my area and it was really refreshing to walk/run in the crisp-cool air! As I look at my Spring100 Calendar, I am noticing we are almost half way through this challenge. WAY TO GO! ?? Y’all are doing a wonderful job and I am thrilled to have you in the Spring100 challenge. I hear a portion of the walkers/runners are recovering from  that nasty super-cold effecting a everyone from deep south in Texas all the way to London 😉 but you haven’t let it slow you down.  WOW!! Fantastic!  This week’s Spring100 verse is Psalm 85:13, Righteousness shall go before HIM; and shall set us in the way of HIS steps. This would make a great memory verse for the next week and I encourage you all to really meditate on it during your walk! Isn’t it a comforting and blessed truth that He sets us in the way of His righteous steps?! Enjoy week 6 everyone and don’t forget to send in 100MileMonday photos along the way!! Can’t wait to walk week 6 of the SPRING100 with you all across the miles! ???

??2 questions for this week!! ?? 1.) Do you have a favorite walking partner or do you walk alone? 2.) Any of you had to push through sickness during the Spring100?

    What great weather! To answer the questions:
    1. I think my favorite walking buddy is Adele ?, but second is my sister Beth and her little girlies, who make it on many of my walks! ?
    2. After a lovely rain, our long driveway turned to mud, so I walked in mud boots — and got two blisters! ? But that’s all (nothing worse!), so I feel grateful! ?
    It’s been a great week of walking! Thanks, Rachel!

    1. Nathaniel is my favorite company for walks! It’s been a great way for us to talk of how each other’s day went and spend some time together with just a few interruptions from the girls. 🙂

    2. Occasionally Kathryn will trip up and scrape her hands and elbows. I haven’t had any accidents yet. 🙂 When we had a cold a some weeks ago walks was just about the only thing to keep the girls from feeling so bad. I’m so thankful to the Lord that I have such a lovely road to take walks on.

    1. My “walking buddy” is my Mom. 🙂
    2. One day this past week we walked 2 miles in the rain… we came home nice and wet after our lovely shower! 🙂

    Love this week’s verse… reminds me of one of my favorites: “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.” (Psalm 37: 23-24) 🙂

    It has been a beautiful week here!

    I really enjoy walking with my family. With different schedules I have mostly been getting my miles in with the company of Honey the family lab. A couple of times I walked with my sister.
    I also decided to try and use the tally counter and walk 4,000 steps in place while watching a movie with my family. I don’t know about you, but it’s hard for me to sit still for so long! ?

    I am thankful that I haven’t been sick or injured!

    I hope you all have a great week!!?
    Loved all the photos. ❤
    Thanks for the encouragement Rachel.
    I will take your advice and meditate on ps. 85. ?

    Favorite walking buddy is probably Emmi or Abel, or whoever will join me… but I usually go solo (though I’m always passing a fellow family member on our ever-crowded driveway)! So far I have escaped the hacking virus that’s running through my house right now?, but a few days ago I had a cold… nothing serious, so a walk was just the thing to clear my head (and nose!) .?‍♂️ 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣Great photos everyone!!!

    Hello, everyone!

    Enjoying the photos and following along on everyone’s “journeys”. The toughest part of the Spring100 has been the pollen and allergies…I’ve been walking indoors more lately, though the spring weather is absolutely gorgeous! 😉

    “Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” –Phil. 3:13-14

    Keep pressing on Spring100ers! 🙂

      Oh!! So glad you are able to enjoy some indoor walking. Those allergies can get really bad this time of year!! ?
      Phil. 3:13-14 is a favorite for me. 🙂 Thank you for encouraging us with it!!
      Have fun for week 6, Rachel! ?

      I bet it is helpful to have a dog that HAS to go out for a walk to encourage you to get your walking in! ? So thankful you have remained healthy for the Spring100. Enjoy this new week and whatever it may bring!! ???

    I’ve had some sickness and a migraine hinder me in my walking, but nothing very serious! A lot of the time I walk alone or with my little dog, Dixie. Lately a couple neighbor children (who also attend our church) have been walking or riding their bikes with me sometimes when I walk. 🙂 I’ve been enjoying the pictures and comments!!

    These days I do my walking/jogging alone, too; but whenever someone accompanies me, it is my brother Joseph and my sister Faith–or just Joseph. On the Sunday of week 5 I was fighting off a virus, but thank the Lord, I had recovered by the afternoon, so I was well in time for Spring 100 on Monday. Other than that, I didn’t have any major discomforts on week 5.
