Taipei Marathon & Sunday Service

I was up early and went out to cheer the runners... 28,000 total runners: half marathon 19,000, full marathon 9,000 and if you didn't have a qualifying time, you were put into the lottery to see if you get a bib for the run. That's how popular this run has become. I ran the half in 2010 and the full in 2011. And I moved on to running longer distances and started the NO RUN ON SUNDAY decision!

I go in my monkey PJs... 


I saw two more people but they didn't stop to take a picture. They were pushing for their PR.

On the way home, I paid a bill and bought bread. By the time I got home, it was time for lunch and then I was off to church. Tutoring started at 1:30.

Then time to set up the Love Cafe... We had old friends come to visit. And thank you for your prayers. The service had no 'bomb', except another person told me that she will be 'following the pastor' to his new church plant. And the message was about 'not following the pastor but following God'. What a contradiction in lieu of his actions. We are trusting God to provide.

I stayed behind to talk and didn't get back home until 8pm. I had a quick dinner and cleaned up things before having prayer time at 9:15.

I was so exhausted! How did the day go by so quickly?!?!?

It was Winter Solstice. We had TongYuan on Friday... 

I didn't have time to read the essays... I will have to work on those tomorrow morning before tutoring at 3pm! 

And the week looks like a busy one!
