A year and a half ago I did not believe I could do this. People have asked me why I took on this challenge. I shared with one person, "I am grateful to be at a point in my life where I am choosing to be challenged by running a marathon, rather than where I used to be....challenged by healing from sexual abuse." To be free of past emotional issues and have the opportunity to take on a new experience was powerfully rewarding. Finishing the San Diego marathon was one of the highlights of my life. To know that when we choose to reach new heights of creation, God is right there with us to assist us in success. Heavenly Father not only desires to assist us with overcoming the hardships in life, He finds tremendous joy in assisting us in creating what is wonderful and desirable to us. During my training, I not only ran the miles, but while running the miles I used the creation principles I teach in my book as I ran. Doing energy circles while running is a very empowering experience. to I also had asked for angels to run with me and I felt them all along the way. A limiting collective belief in the marathon world is at mile 20 you hit a wall. Even on the race course they put up a large apparatus that looked like a wall with the words "The Wall" painted on it. Our coach shared with us that at mile 20 you hit a wall and it feels like you are running a second marathon. I replied to him, "that is a limiting belief that I am not going to participate with. I am going to believe that my marathon starts at mile 20 and every mile before it has just been a warm-up!" The power of belief is incredible when we really believe. My evidence was from mile 20 to mile 26 I clocked my best time, taking a minute and a half off each mile. I am grateful for all the people who came out and cheered us all on, nearly 40,000 along the way. The best comment I had yelled at me by a marine that was manning a water station was, "The pain is the weakness leaving your body!" Yelled in true marine style. The most amazing person I met was Julie Barrett, a 70 year-"young" woman who only started running marathons at age 48 and the San Diego marathon was her 93 marathon. What an inspiration to what we can achieve. Many of you know that my husband and I ran this marathon for the Leukemia Foundation. We successfully raised $6,000 dollars. If you are looking for a great experience, get involved in the Leukemia marathon program. Email me if you would like further information. carol@c... ______________________________________ China Two days ago my family of 6 returned from a 16-day trip to mainland China. Two things I have a greater appreciation for in our country as a result of our trip is our waste disposal system and our clean air. With the westernization of China they are importing more products with wrappers and disposable parts and more cars. They have not created systems yet to accomodate this. Smog is a very big problem as wewll as litter in many areas. Since my husband speaks fluent mandarin chinese, thanks to his 2-year mission in Taiwain and many businnes trips there since, it was wonderful to watch him converse with the Chinese. They were fascinated by his language ability and whenever he conversed with someone a group of a dozen or more people would gather around with astonshing looks on their faces. To climb the Great Wall, walk through the Forbidden City, view the thousands of terra-cotta soldiers, spend 5 days going up the Yangtze River, observe the Chinese elders out in the parks in the early morning practicing Tai Chi, and much more was an incredible. We went with a tour group for a very reasonable price that included everything....$2300, and it did include everything, even airfare! If you would like more information on next years excursion please email me and I can reply with the contact information. carol@c... ______________________________________ Seminars I am taking the summer off from my seminar schedule and will be offering more in the Fall.
