Preparation Update...

Until recently I was averaging 11-12 miles per day walking my usual route.  At one point I circumnavigated southwest Tomball and logged 16.7 miles in one day.  In the days following I began to experience more pain than normal in my left leg.  As it worsened, I saw my sports medicine doctor and underwent an MRI.  Turns out I have scoliosis and some nerve damage in one of my vertebra.  This coming Friday I will undergo electro diagnostic testing to pinpoint the exact location of the problem.  Might be looking at back surgery (for the third time!).  So we are on hold for the time being until we can be reasonably sure I can complete a journey I begin.  Thanks so much for your prayers about this.
