30-30 Plan update

The 30-30 plan for the first week has been working out well.  I jogged every day except Wednesday for 10 minutes and did my daily devotional everyday for 30 minutes.  By Friday I was wore out.  I didn’t want to get up Friday morning.  The 10 minute jog is working out to be right at 1 mile.  I didn’t think I would be on a 10min/mile pace just getting started so I was excited about that.  Next week I’m going up to a 15 min jog per day.  I might have to do a run/walk for 15min next week but I’ll see how it goes.

The Bible study is turning out to take longer than 30 minutes so I’m pumped about that also.  This last week I read Psalms 119 mostly.  It talks about studying God’s word.  The Psalm is even written for memorization.  For example each set of verses that go together are titled with a letter of the Hebrew alphabet and the first word for that set matches that letter.  This is supposed to make it easier to recall and memorize.  Here is the set of verses I read to my online small group last night to kick us off.

Psalm 119

y Yodh

73 Your hands made me and formed me;
give me understanding to learn your commands.

74 May those who fear you rejoice when they see me,
for I have put my hope in your word.

75 I know, O LORD, that your laws are righteous,
and in faithfulness you have afflicted me.

76 May your unfailing love be my comfort,
according to your promise to your servant.

77 Let your compassion come to me that I may live,
for your law is my delight.

78 May the arrogant be put to shame for wronging me without cause;
but I will meditate on your precepts.

79 May those who fear you turn to me,
those who understand your statutes.

80 May my heart be blameless toward your decrees,
that I may not be put to shame.

  2. Way to go - Heath! Steve and I are starting running and studying as well. We are doing couch potato to 5K in 9 weeks. So we started this week with 5 minute brisk walk, then jog 1 minute, walk a minute & half, jog a minute (you repeat the jog - walk cycle for 20 minutes)… We move on to more jog and less walk next week. We shall see.

    My Beth Moore Bible study also takes a little more than 30 minutes a day (5 days a week). Help keep me accountable - love the 30-30 plan

    By the way - this is my first blog post comment (hope I am following procedure)
