Hot & Muggy
I don't know how he does it but Kent can get out and run when you can hardly draw a breath! I have not run in the last couple of days because it was like someone stepping on my chest when I went outside. But he is faithful......guess more than I ever will be. This is encouraging for me and hope I will get on that dratted treadmill sometime today and do "something"!! I feel so much better when I run but days like the recent ones have been difficult at best! Hope I overcome this "monster" that's got me held down. Have a good one all of you out there that are so consistent...keep up the good work and great examples for others like me!
