Run. (for orphans... and chocolate milk)


I ran my second ever 5k this morning down in East Berlin.
The run was a benefit for Abogar International Ministries and sponsored by Apple Valley Creamery.


Sharon and I participated in the run, though we didn't run together as she is much faster than I am.
I was so happy to run the entire course (even though I was probably once again the slowest runner of the crew), and quite pleased to have completed the run in 3 minutes less than my first 5k time.

Oh- and the Chocolate Milk...
If you have never tasted Apple Valley Creamery chocolate milk, I hope that one day you will have the privilege of tasting this smooth, sweet, chocolate-y goodness, which actually quite resembles liquid chocolate ice cream... 
DE.licious.

    1. Betsy O.- thanks for your comment. I praise God for health and strength-- to walk and run! I echo the common Zambian phrase: "with thanksgiving in our hearts," so often spoken in prayer.
