Happy Tuesday!!!
In my mind , it’s almost April. It’s the
time of the year that Flowers start to bloom, and people come out of their winter blues. It’s also the time of the year when I start preparing my mind and body for my annual challenge of Bo Jackson Bikes Bama. It’s a 60 mile bike ride, mostly up hill in the hot Alabama sun that challenges my soul every year. And by the way, I’m proud to say it’s my 5th straight year of sitting on a small seat while coaching myself to maintain a finishing mindset. Every single year I’m faced with challenges. This year, about a good month ago I hurt myself. Last year it was my ankle that was twisted and swollen throughout the entire 60 mile ride. Up until the start of last year’s ride I told myself, and my riding partner, Kya Williams, that I could only do the 20 mile jaunt. At the start of the line, and after seeing a nod from Bo, Lance Armstrong, Bret Farve, and thousands of others, I changed my mind. It was the hardest 60 miles of my life. But... somehow God changes me to endure moments that are greater than I can accomplish on my own. This year is no different. I’ve been battling a hip issue that has me growing gray hair. You see the photo. LMAO. One day I rated my physical state to the Sports Joc as a 4 out of 10. It was the worst my body had ever felt. His stoic remark gave me renewed strength. He simply said, “Just do the 20 miles this year Dear.” He was being kind... after all he notices the gray hair too. LMAO. The devil is a liar. When Bo rides, I ride. I always know that my help is on the way. Happy Day to you❤️ I’m infused by a gospel playlist for my morning ride.“Sometimes you have to encourage yourself. Sometimes you have to speak victory during the test, and no matter how you feel, speak the word over your life and you will be healed. “ let’s ride!!!!
