Â
Can I get an Aggie whoop!? Our Lord gave all three of us the grace to run the Freescale half-marathon today!
Â
It was freezing cold throughout the race (at mile 9 the Braker Lane overpass was still icy), and we sat in traffic to get to the start line location for 1 hour and 15 minutes, ultimately starting the race 45 minutes late.
Â
Gerardo took off early, then Richard went ahead of me, and I brought up the rear, passing walkers most of the time, since we started so late. My foot and hip flexor began to hurt at mile 6 or so, but it wasn’t enough to stop me, and then the last two miles I began to book it, since the longest part was done, and I felt good.
Â
I didn’t have to stop due to injury and ran the whole way, thanks be to God.
Â
“Thank you, Jesus, for answering so many prayers for us!”

Here’s a picture of us after finishing the run:
