Track Meets are Fun!

Robin got the family to try out an All-comer's track meet at Rocklin High School.  It was exciting, exhausting and eye-opening all at the same time... http://racing.teamsoares.com/2011/06/teamsoares-at-track-meet.html

Never Give Up Praying for your Heart's Desire

In 2008, after 9 yrs of heel pain, I agreed to surgery.  After a long recovery it then got worse.  A year later, I still had the problem.  But we kept praying about it.  And then 1 day, Oct '09, I prayed and started running, without doing my usual stretching beforehand.. it felt better and got better & stronger every week until Nov '10 when I ran 17mi, my farthest in 5yrs.  I recently finished the '11 Napa Marathon.  It's been a great answer to a long-standing prayer.  And it doesn't seem like 10 yrs looking back.  Never give up praying for your heart's desire!
"Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope." Rom 5:3-4

Family Ride to Granite Bay

Today was a good day. We rode down to Granite Bay with family in tow and watched Sherwick and Jami race well (even splits) at the TBF duathlon. Then swam a little (with wetsuits) and rode home and took naps. Thanks, God.. good day :)

To My Wife

I love my wife, Robin! And all we've done together. And the gifts that God has given us, such as our recent addition, Ariel LeeAnn.
