If you ain't movin, you ain't losin!

"Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's." - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

App of the Day: Run Training (free on Apple App Store)

Because I decided I want to continue with this quest for healthy living, I decided I want to run a marathon eventually, yet right now, I can probably barely run a mile, so I am starting slowly.  I found several great apps that train you to run different races.  Currently, I am training for a 5K.  There are several apps out there, but I am going to illustrate below the training plan from the app called Run Training.
