This is kind of a weird prayer request, but I mentioned it at LifeGroup Online<\/a> last night and felt I needed to share with you too. After all, more prayer can only further help me, right?<\/p>\n

Okay, here’s the deal… over the last 3ish months of building endurance and working out on a regular basis, there has been one thing keeping me from my full potential with my physical activity. And it was certainly unexpected.<\/p>\n

My feet. <\/strong><\/p>\n

I have weird feet. There, I said it. I have big, flat feet and they are causing me a great deal of pain while I workout.<\/p>\n

The pain that radiates in my arches, I am going to go so far as to say is worse than when I had kidney stones. It actually causes me to have to stop moving and stretch my legs, ankles and feet throughout my routine — even though my body and my mind have much more left to give. This causes my heart-rate to reduce and makes my workout all that much more ineffective. Any will power and discipline I have to get on any piece of exercise equipment is quickly lost when the pain begins to set in (which at what I can figure is at about the 7 minute mark). To put that into perspective for you, I am at a 40-45 minute workout routine now. So that means I am in a great deal of pain for a good 33-38 minutes. For a while I was able to endure it and keep going, but now…. it is simply unbearable.<\/p>\n

And it is beyond frustrating. <\/strong><\/p>\n

But there might be hope for me. The wife of one of the pastor’s I work with is an athletic trainer and practices sports medicine. I have an appointment with her on Saturday and she believes she can help solve my foot woes. And I am asking for your prayers that something, in fact, can be done about this. I simply can’t grow further in my fitness efforts and keep going strong with the pain like it is. I also know that if it doesn’t get taken care of — there’s no way I will be able to do the Breast Cancer 3-Day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thank you for your prayers friends. <\/em><\/p>\n

AND if you have any advice, I will gladly take it. <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
