I am not a runner or a walker but I have enjoyed perusing Dorina Gilmore Young’s newest release “Walk, Run, Soar”.
A 50 day devotional. This isn’t your typical one verse, a couple of hundred words and then journaling prompt type devotional.
Yes, it does start with a Scripture as a base, and yes there is an essay using a life moment, training or race story. Dorina also infuses Biblical themes and stories in them as well.
Each devotion closes out with a “Faith Step”. Action steps to take, either something to ponder or a journaling prompt. Not all have to do with running.
There are “Inspiration Moment” in each devotion too. Notable quotes by coaches, athletes, other runners. There are a few non-sports notables as well.
Her husband Shawn comes in with training tips each day and there is a weekly log each day to note your miles and whatever else you want to include about your workouts.
This is not just a devotional for runners, there are a few appendices in the back of the book. Essentially, “how to train” sections. Whether you are training for a 5k, a 10k or something else.
I think it’s a lovely devotional, whether you are a runner or not. I could still relate to the essays.
