Easy 5 miles. We left the park on Watt Road and crossed over to Fleenor Rd (Union Rd). We took that all the way out to Everett and turned left. We continued on Everett until we got to 2.5mi out and headed back the way we came. On the way back we discovered that the speed radar picks up runners on the sidewalk. Apparently, one of the pax hit 13 mph!

Running a large loop around JUCO seemed to work well. It was better than going crazy by running many small loops around the track. This is week 7 of 18 of the Hanson Running Plan. We were back to starting at 5:00am this morning. The holidays are over and its time to get back to the grind. Here is the link to the plan for reference: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1754/7753/files/Advanced_Marathon_-_new.pdf?2510896761829477751

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
An encouragement in the New Year to take some time each week to plan.  Planning has made all the difference in being intentional with my time, attacking the week, and making sure the things that should get my first and best actually get that.  Through planning, you take time to list out your roles and goals for the week and make sure the most important things get on your calendar.  When I fail to plan, I drift into the week and often find myself just responding to whatever is coming my way instead of focusing.  It effects my kids when I plan out our nights and how we are going to use our time together (so we don’t just default to tv).  It effects my wife when I plan out our date nights and time for communication throughout the week where I am seeking to draw her out and care for her.  So, take time each week to think thru what you are called to do, what is most important, and put those things on the calendar in pen.
