1/2 Marathon and The Statue of Liberty

hey everyone...

so this week after conference i ran over a girl on my bike... but this time it was her fault, and i actually didnt run here over, cuz she bounced right off my shoulder..... i did a hit and run this time... but asked if she was okay as i kept going... we were in a hurry, but i should have stopped.... funny thing the 2 christ lke attributes im working on right now are patience and charity.... i broke both in that situation...

well good news everyone... i woke up and ran that half marathon this morning... we woke up at 430, and me and my companion ran it in 2 hours and 19 mins, no stopping no walking ran from 5 to 720 in the morning... and didnt train for it... i prayed 4 times while running. and it actually turned into a spiritual experience for me.... who would have thought exercise could bring the holy ghost.... i only finished the 13 mile run, because i prayed to God and promised him i wouldnt walk! DILIGENCE is the key! i also got a nice blister from it... check it out :)

oh yeah and i just find out.. i also cant receive emails from friends... so dont bother sending em cuz i wont look.. you can write though. but yeah life is god out here... the language is coming slowly and conference was amazing..... well i dont have much more time to say anything.... but this morning i got a strong testimony in making personal covenants to GOd, and i suggest you all to do your own... what ever it may be!!!! love you all

love elder brunson!!!!
