Training for 2.4km

Thank God for the opportunity to get to know Daniel who is my trainer now. He is the younger brother of one of the new believers, Gustavo. We got to know each other through a picnic. :)

I have trained with Daniel for 2 times on Saturdays. On the first Saturday, we ran 8x200m in Carolina Park. I felt pain in my calves the next day. He told me that I need to run tip-toes instead of running on my soles. If I run on my soles, I will be running in a sitting position and it will be slower. Although it was hard to change the running habits, I manage to change to running on tip-toes on the second Saturday.

On the second Saturday, we ran from Carolina Park to Metropolitano Park. The Metropolitano park is very beautiful as it is on a forest terrain. We ran 15km in 80 minutes. It was good training for me as the terrain was up and down,and my body has to adjust to the unpredictable terrain.

My goal is to run 2.4km in about 10 minutes as I will be taking the fitness test in October when I visit Singapore. I also hope to outreach to Daniel so that he can get to know Jesus too. Pray along with me that our run every Saturday will be fruitful and filled with the presence of God.
