Ironman and Facepaint

This weekend was crazy but awesome! A bunch of us went to volunteer at the Ironman 70.3 and it was so much fun! The people that do these things are crazy. They are all SO in shape it's ridiculous and makes me feel so lame. They swim 1.2 miles, bike 56 miles, and run 13.1 miles. By the end, people are falling over and just about dead, but so glad they did it. And this is only half of the real thing. In the fall, they have one that's double all that. Can you even imagine? You basically have to be superhuman to do these things. I was exhausted just being in the sun all day; I can't even fathom trying to do one of those. We were gone basically all day (4:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.). Crazy, right? I never get up that early. NEVER. I'm so glad I went though. Plus, they gave us a bunch of free food. There's nothing better than that. And free diet coke! Oh man, it was so good.
When we got back we went to 'YWAM Idol'. Pretty cheesy, but fun. On Sunday, Alyssa and I walked around town, bought groceries, a UV filter, Wendy's, and took pictures of strangers for our photo assignment. Here's one of the ones I turned in:
Then a bunch of us decided to do a random photoshoot with paint and weird make-up. Here's a few of my favorites. If you want to see more, they're all on Facebook.






So, yeah, pretty crazy and exhausting, but super fun at the same time. I only have 3ish weeks left until Haiti! I'm so excited! Please continue in prayer with me for that country and for the people I will be meeting there. Love you guys!
