Please pray for Jeff and Doug as they approach Saturday morning. They have been training for a few months and have to trust that training to get them through the entire 50 miles. It will be physically,mentally, and emotionally challenging. Physically...we all know this will be physically challenging, but Jeff turned his ankle during their trail run a week and a half ago. Please pray for strength for that ankle. Please pray for safety for them as the 13 mile trail section of the course will be leaf covered and most likely wet. Mentally...part of this endurance is a mental challenge as one goes through waves of confidence and lack there of. Please pray for them as they hit those lows. Emotionally...the children in the Good Sam orphanage are the reason these two have been so dedicated to this run. The race is one day for the two of them, but the orphanage building will bless these children for years to come. They will use this motivation when they feel they can't go on. Please pray that God will bring that to the forefront of their thinking throughout the day.
I have complete confidence God will strengthen Jeff's ankle, they will be strong on race day, and that they will finish. God has been so faithful in all of the steps we have taken so far in this journey we are on and I trust completely He will bless this.
