One Reason: 21 Days to a New Beginning

It takes approximately 21 days to develop a new habit

When I was young, I took swimming lessons. After the instructor said to jump into the pool like any kid, I ran and jumped into the deep end of the pool. For someone who couldn't swimg, that wasn't the smartest thing. I had to be rescued. From then on, if I went into the water, I would go into a panic if I couldn't touch the bottom

In January of 2012, I signed up for a triathlon.

I had never done anything close to this, not even a 5k run. In fact, it had been 25 years since I did any type of strenuous exercise. I wasn't sure how to train, or where to start to get into enough physical shape to complete the triathlon. Not to mention overcoming my fear of swimming.

But, God put this on my heart. And if he could give Abraham and Sarah a child in their golden years, he could help me swim, bike and run. I knew my journey wasn't going to be a dramatic as Sarah's, not by any stretch, but I had the faith to achieve my goals. And I hoped the training would help me develop the good habit to exercise.
