"They charge like warriors; they scale walls like soldiers. They all march in line, not swerving from their course." Joel 2:7

Hi Dana & Rick-

Danny and I ran in the "World Famous Mud Run" at Camp Pendleton in San Diego- it's this 10K obstacle course that our wonderful US Marines train on. We've done it before and it's a lot of "fun"?

Danny decided a couple weeks ago, he wanted to dedicate the run to you, Rick. He decided to pray "for you" while running and tackling all the BIG hill climbs, river crossings, mud pits and walls- 5,500 people ran that morning in San Diego- we decided we would take off and run to the head of the start line... excuse me, Danny decided that. ha- I was SO nervous realizing just how many people would be charging me when we took off. We prayed!!!! Right there... for protection. Danny is in MUCH better shape than I- he really pushed himself, especially during one difficult mud hill- up up up... he ran the entire race and ran it hard.... thinking of you, Rick- he came in 40th place out of 5,500 people! I did complete the race.... that's about it! haaaaa- blah..... the end of the 10K is this 30 foot mud pit that requires you to bear crawl.... face in mud- my knees are torn-up "ouch" I thought of you, Rick during that.. and I didn't stop =) just want to share that with you. We thought of you and the fight you're in- asking God to heal you- save you and continue to ease that anxiety, fill you with His amazing peace and give you strength to complete this fight you face- You guys must join us someday in the Mud Run-

always.....always in our prayers.

Danny and Heidi
