Alyssa C
Hey everybody! I’m Alyssa, a 20 year old daughter at home and lover of all things music! ? ♥️ I’m recovering from a bout of pneumonia, so am taking it easy and starting the miles off real slow – but can’t wait to jump in full steam! This is my second Spring100; last year I walked the beautiful hills of my NH home, but this year I will be walking wherever I’m able to in my new home state of sunny FL ☀️ ?. I was hoping to get some beach miles in, but all the beaches here in Pensacola are closed due to COVID-19 precautions. So grateful that “stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blessed, finding as He promised, perfect peace and rest.” “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on Thee, because he trusteth in Thee. Trust ye in the LORD forever; for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength!” ~Isaiah 26:3,4
♥️?♥️
So glad to be doing this with y’all! Welcome to all you new folks! Let’s continue to stay our minds on Jesus and rest in His plan as we run with patience the race set before us!♥️

Happy Spring 100 everyone!! I am walking my 4th Spring 100 here in east TX!! I have to confess that my pinky-toe issue was more of a joke than a legitimate ailment.

So excited to walk this with you all!! “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:7-10
