On this day in 1861 Abe Lincoln was elected POTUS. Also, today is Jerry Springer's Birthday. It's like the Yin-Yang of American History.

Reflection
Corinthians 13 (Yes the whole Chapter) We are in the season of Love. But Biblical love is not the romantic love. It's the type of love that we should strive for every day. If we all loved like Corinthians 13 every day, just think of how this world would be…
1 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
Moleskin
- Apparently, the workout started very similar to Tuesday's workout…but that's okay since it was just a couple PAX on Tuesday.
- As we roll up to the AO we see yet another runner preparing to launch from the AO at 0530, but pays us no attention.
- Mater, embarrassed by his Jeeps mirrors attention, drives his truck again today
- Hefty chose to run with the PAX today although we all know he could have taken off with mad speed
- Strudel barely makes it on time after waking up 3 minutes before launch (Nice to live within an earshot of the AO)
- We had a few F3 runners make a cameo appearance at the end
- Dandelion rolls up on his bike and provides some comic relief at 0610
- Skipper and Fabio go blazing by at 0613
- Fabio returns after hitting his goal distance for the day
- Dandelion and Fabio stick around for the 2nd longest reflection and name-o-rama
- Skipper, apparently has no time for Scripture and Prayer this morning, just runs on home all anti-social like and will get his reflection later.
