Wilkerson Here:  I am sitting in Buenos Aires, Argentina, a city that competes with New York City in size.  As we toured around, I am struck with the song, Jesus Loves the Little Children, red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in His sight, Jesus loves the little children of the world.  It would come from the innocense of the children to ask, doesn’t he love all the grown-ups, too?  Some believe he has forsaken places on earth for all kinds of reasons.  I don’t speak for the Lord, but I would say he is using me and you to take his character to those so called forsaken places and others who do with our contributions.   Haiti and many other places need us to help.  Thanks for doing your part where ever that might be.  Thanks for helping us in Haiti. 

Training:  Tired of training.  Need it to go back to just good health.  Did another 45 minutes today.  2.5 miles outside and then incline treadmill to finish.  Trying not to push the ankle.  Might need to push as the lack of distance and no bike is showing up.  Plenty of time to get some increased work time done.  I don’t have to log long miles, but must log long time work outs.  Need the body to know I expect it to go for a couple of hours.  Any suggestions how I can trick it into thinking I am 30?  If so we are rich!  I know 76 million who are prospects.

Wilkerson Here:  Mark Graham and his team are close to going to Haiti as you can read from his Blog entry just before this on runmarkrun.com.  We have moved the thermometer up but still not over that $10,000 mark.  Appreciate you support and efforts to pass this on to everyone you can. 

Training:  Ran for 40 minutes this morning.  Did some intervals and walked some steep inclines.

Wilkerson Here:  Hope everyone enjoyed the day.  Sundays are great days to re-juice yourself for the coming days and week.  To worship, fellowship and prepare for the Lord.  Hope you didn’t feel like you wasted the day or any day for that matter.  In Him. 

Training:  Weights today.  Miss about 4 sessions for swimming and biking.  Since here with no bike and a very small pool.  Got back to the weights.  Got to keep them in the routine.  Important!!

Wilkerson Here:  “If a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, he too will cry out and not be answered”  -Proverbs 21:13-   I have been reading some of the blogs and catching up at NWHCM.org.  This is the mission we work with and support their efforts.  Reading the different blogs and news from the people is deeply moving.  It is amazing just what these people do for the sake of others.  How they extend themselves to minister to the physical needs of the Haitians is incredible.  We thank you for having your ears open to the cry of the poor. 

Training:  Did 3 miles this morning on hard concrete.  Legs are starting to feel it.  Two of my running friends made it up and out with me this morning.  They are both much faster but were very kind and stayed at a pace I could tolerate.

Wilkerson Here:  Proverbs 31:8-9  “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves,  for the rights of all who are destitute.  Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy”.  You are heeding this proverb when you are spreading the purpose of RunMarkRun to your friends and pledge to contribute.  Thanks for following and praying. 

Training:  In Buenos Aires.  Ran this morning and did intervals to work some on speed.  Still sluggish from the long trip.  Walked a running route for the morning.  This is a major city like New York so a lot of concrete.  Noticed that people here don’t pick up after their dogs.  Will have to pay attention when running on the streets.
