Run Like a Girl

My Corbin Mac turned 6 months old today!
No better way to celebrate than running a Half Marathon with some great gals.
A few other fun ladies ran too, but as usual, I didn't manage to get a photo with everyone in it.

and what FUN we had! I ran side by side with this awesome gal for 13. 1 miles and we talked, laughed, sweat (a lot), and cheered the whole time (except for the part at mile 12 where the jerk-face in the truck swerved to hit us and knocked us into the ditch on the side of the road. I "cheered" a few choice words at that guy).

But at the end, there was no medic station, passing out, or throwing up needed for us, we were laughing, smiling, and leaping through the air as we crossed the finish line. It was great.

Aaron made sure these little buddies were at mile 6 to help cheer us on, and then they waited patiently for us at the end.
The past week has been filled with some CrAzY stress and unbelievable adversity.

Today was just about having fun and enjoying the reward of knowing that after months of hard work and opposition, I can totally say,

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." (2 Timothy 4:7)

I live a very blessed life.

The run was perfect.
I will absolutely do this again.
