In this season of life, running isn't always an option! I would probably trip over my cane! Plus, endurance would probably be short-lived.
Bible Marginalia reminded me, "entrusting to Him is key to endurance."
Run the Race. Which race? Hebrews 12:1 gives the answer, "the one set before us."
Bible Marginalia again......Life of faith = long run...ie not a sprint or an easy run.
Before discouragement set in, I read the answer to running the race in the life of faith. The all important phrase of Hebrews 12:2----looking to Jesus!
Think focusing, trusting and relying on "Jesus, the name above all names" as the source of our life of faith. (Philippians 2:9)
Looking to Jesus at my life stage/age needs more than a ck off the list quiet time.
It can require extended time.....often that includes being still, looking up and out the window that frames my prayer chair. Blue skies or rainy fog--the weather doesn't seem to matter. 
It's the condition of my heart that matters as I seek time with Him.
Know Peace. No Fear!
Looking to Jesus is soul affirming.
