It's been an exciting two weeks since my last post. To summarize quickly, did a almost 30 mile bike ride to Berlin, Ohio and back ( Thought about riding up and down the road in front of our house a couple times to get 30 but felt like that would be cheating), did 20 miles to Navarre, Ohio and back yesterday, and plan on getting near 30 tomorrow.
This has been a learning process for me. I think I have learned something new every single day on the bike. My training schedule is trying to ride 15-25 miles Monday, Wednesday, and Friday; and then riding a longer ride every other week on Friday starting at 30 miles and working my way up to 70 miles. I have been trying to use a lot of time on my bike to use in quiet time with God. Its amazing how little time we devote to our creator. A lot of times its because of our busy schedule or things that come up, but I encourage you find that time to spend alone with God. For me it has been riding my bike. For others it could be running, cleaning, walking, knitting, etc... Whatever it might be just make sure and take the time to do it. I end with this quote by Martin Luther:
"If I fail to spend two hours in prayer each morning, the devil gets the victory through the day. I have so much business I cannot get on without spending three hours daily in prayer. Martin Luther
