I really like learning new things. It's a wonderful experience when those skills are actually useful, too! Like tying my shoes so the don't come untied! Did you know that Usain Bolt in his recent world-record breaking performance in the Olympics ran the end of the race with an untied shoelace? Lucky he didn't trip!
So for many years, I "solved my problem" by putting in double knots. UBU ! That's golf talk for "ugly but useful". Imagine my surprise when I saw this video on the home page of Runner's World recently:

It really works! My shoes stayed tied all day! I used on my hockey skates and running shoes, too! No more double knots! Go ahead, paste it in and check it out! Or go to www.runnersworld.com and look for it on the home page. Fascinating!
OK. You know I like to make spiritual connections, so here it goes: sometimes we were taught a certain way of thinking about God that just didn't "work"; it just kept coming "untied"! Now along comes a loving Father who teaches us the right way, and it works!
We are never too old to learn new ways! Just ask God to show you the way!

I think I do it the correct way. Oh well, it has never been a problem for me.
So the half-marathon training program is underway. Unfortunately, Jessica is an early casualty and won't be able to run it with us. She tripped over Mariposa and badly bruised (had to get x-rayed) her foot and will be on crutches for a little while.
