So J and I this morning participated in the St. Jude Marathon weekend! J did the 5k and I did the half marathon...WOW! It was a blast. The Lord gave us absolutely beautiful weather and lots of energy. It made me so grateful to be alive and healthy enough to tackle something like this. I talked with a friend who had finished the half before a few weeks ago and she was saying it was so humbling to run through the St. Jude Campus because you realize that some of these kids cannot even walk. She was so right. It could so easily be me in that situation and yet it just made me so,so thankful for the health that my family and I have been given. How I do not want to take health for granted but always be thankful to the Lord, give Him the glory, and serve Him.
Anyway, the fun started last night as we loaded up on some carbs...mmm..pasta!
We then laid out everything we needed for the next bright and early morning....
I meant to get a picture of us before the race but I forgot...Here are some post-race shots!
