Most of the local public events are cancelled in the name of COVID-19, but our illogical government let this marathon slip for some reason.  And the race is usually held annually in February when the weather is cool and perfect for long distance running, but this makeup race (cancelled in 2019 due to pandemic) unusually scheduled to be on Oct. 24, which I\u2019m worrying might still be a bit too hot for a marathon.  Regardless, I need to learn to trust that God\u2019s plan is always much better than what I can imagine with my limited mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Things in our city continues to head south, and many personal things are troubling me without any clear resolutions, and this never-ending pandemic is exacerbating the whole situation.
