Sorry about the lack of posts for an entire month.
Well, I got the new car and it turns out that the car is Canadian. Yesterday, it was 17 degrees outside so I turned the in-car temperature to 20. Also, I think that instead of oil, the engine takes maple syrup. With that being said, the Black Baron is not a suitable name. The car shall now be dubbed, "The Hoser."
I finished my second year of seminary and have two left, God willing. I even got a 'B' in my really hard Greek class that I was worried about passing! Now I am taking an online theology class this summer. I found a coffee shop in Crosslake, MN that has wi-fi so I'll be doing coursework from Northern MN this June.
The marathon is 3 weeks from today! I am excited and pretty nervous now. I haven't done many long runs yet because things always kept coming up (sickness, final exams, bad weather). Last Monday, I tried to run 16 miles, but when I was 8 miles from home it started downpouring (with lightning) and the temperature dropped from 60 degrees to 40. I was soaked and freezing, so I stopped at a nearby rec center and called Jess to come pick me up so I didn't die. So either tomorrow or the next day I am attempting a 20 mile run.
Finally, (and I mean finally) I got a job yesterday! I start working this afternoon as a pizza delivery driver for Papa John's in Highland's Ranch (a.k.a. Tiptown).
Oh! And Jess and I have an anniversary coming up on May 29th! It will be our 3 year anniversary!

I cannot believe that you can just decide to run 20 miles in a day...don't you have better things to do? I know that you've worked hard for this marathon (kinda), so let us all know how it goes. When is the actual running day? It is amazing to see Silas doing so well (from the other blog). Hope the Pizza delivering goes fantastic.
Just letting you know that I do read this.
