WEEK 3 MILEAGE FORM

…………………………

 “I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.  Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.”
Psalm 119:32-33

Oh my, it’s been a blustery cold week for everyone doing the Spring100 here in the USA this week! How is that for April weather? 😉 So many of you have overcome snowstorms, rain, and freezing temperatures to tackle your miles for 3 week.  ☔❄ I’m so encouraged by YOUR dedication! I’ve been thinking about the race the Lord sets us on and how His Word is a light for our path. “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”Ps 119:105. ??Who would run a rocky unknown mountain trail in the dark without a head lamp? ? Not me!!!  By His Word illuminating our path, we will be able to navigate through this race of life[2 Tim 3:16]. As we enter week 4 of the Spring100 and you set out to get those walking miles in, I  want to challenge you all to more diligently hide God’s Word in your heart and make It your delight[Ps 1:1-2]!  Memorize, listen to, read think about, and make it your 24/7 meditation. Do exactly what Psalm 119:32 says, I WILL RUN the way of THY commandments! So who is with me? Come rain or shine, let’s conquer week 4 of the Spring100! Have fun!!???

 

  ??QUESTION for this week!!   What is your favorite time of day to walk/run? I would LOVE to hear YOUR answer in the comment section below SO don’t leave until you’ve left one. ?

? Now for the moment y’all have been so patiently waiting for! The 100mileMonday photo round-up! So many great photos this week and the theme seems to be “walking with good company”?!! I LOVE each photo I receive!  DON’T FORGET to send photos of yourself during your Spring100 walks each week[as many as you want] to Spring100@shilohPhotography.com and you will be included on the next post! 🙂 We want to see YOU!!

That moment you run into other Spring100ers during your Walk! ? Kendalyn + her faithful walking crew crossed paths with Kathryn + Daniel during their Spring100 walk for week 3. Too fun!

Hannah always gives such great description of her Spring100 walk photos! She says, “What do you do when the vehicle is in the shop and you “need” chips and cookies to serve company? You walk there and get miles for Spring 100!” Such a great idea. WAY TO GO, Hannah! ??

Such a contrast in weather here! ❄? Sarah has braved the cold all week in Kansas to conquer her miles and Virginie +  Aurélie took in the Spring weather at the park in Belgium for their walks! Keep up the great work, ladies!!????

Traveling won’t stop this family! They are diligently grabbing their miles in the square hotel complex. Can’t wait to see them cross the finish line! ??

Kashima is beating the NY rush hour on foot for her Spring100 miles! Way to go, Kashima.?

At my house we all tend to walk a path our dad mowed for us so passing fellow Spring100ers and grabbing a quick selfie is a normal for us.? Joel grabbed this picture during his daily miles!! Love having you part of the Spring100 Joel. Keep it up!

??‍♀️?Esther and Barbara are looking lovely walking their miles this week! Esther’s enjoying Oklahoma terrain and Barbara braved the cold and snow in Massachusetts! Great job!!??

This walking crew is always a fun sight! Lydia is leading the younger crowd toward the Spring100 finish line! Keep up the great work y’all. ??

Bekah decided to improvise  when she was short an older walking partner/safety buddy one day. She calculated the distance walking around our wrap-around porch and was able to safely accomplish her 1.1 mile for the day! ?   Kathryn + Daniel are doing a fantastic job tackling miles in the midst of a busy season. Way to go! Keep up the great work.

Love having Mrs. W & Elizabeth be  a part of the Spring100!! They are grabbing their miles in VA. They are enjoying their walks with family and friends for week 3!!?☺

Lovely faces from Texas and France for this lineup!! Micah enjoyed a bit of sunshine during her Spring100 walk and Marie was super happy to have her adorable niece join her as she grabbed her miles. ?☺

Bethany blessed us with this picture!! Spring100 walkers who live about 400(ish) miles apart met and enjoyed walking a mile together. Love seeing this picture of Bethany & Hannah with Beth + Erich and their adorable daughters. So much opportunity for fun fellowship during your Spring100 walks! ???

Walking with brothers is always better! 😉 Hannah and John enjoyed each other’s company for week 3 and Abel made my Sunday Spring100 walk FANTASTIC by joining me. Great job EVERYONE!! Keep up the fabulous work!! ?

    Great job everyone!!!! Before dinner is one of my favorite times to get my walking in. It was a COLD week, and it looks like everyone was hit with it!! I’m seeing a lot of jackets and coats. ??❄️ Psalm 11:4 “The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord’s throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.”

    My favorite time to walk is mid-morning, but I did enjoy a walk under the stars with one of my older brothers a few nights ago. The sky was so clear! It was beautiful!

    Isaiah 40:31 “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagals; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

    I like mornings best. Get’s me started out on the right foot ( no pun intended:)! But I will say taking a slower paced walk after dinner is always a nice way to end the day too. I prefer sunny mornings especially this time of year. So refreshing having that spring sunshine to motivate you to quicken your pace!

    I like morning or afternoon walks. Of course, this time of year it’s more like afternoon, since that’s the warmest part of the day. I do walk in the evenings sometimes, but it usually keeps me too wired too late. 🙂

    Great job, everyone. Keep up the good work (and great pictures)!
