Half Marathon

I had an incredible experience running the American Fork Half Marathon which is a cancer drive.  I ran for my grandparents who died of cancer.  I started the race pretty sick, and honestly didn't think I would make it.  I prayed really hard that I would be able to finish the race.  Heavenly Father sent me two guardian angels who ran with me and helped me reach my goal.  I am so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who knows exactly what we need, and when we need it.  I am grateful for my family who pushes me and helps me to reach my goals. I had trained really hard to get under 2 hours.  Cari stuck with me the whole entire race.  Towards the end I really needed a boost.  Cari helped me to realize that Nana and Papa bus were with us, and would help me finish the race. I was able to get the extra boost that I needed.   We came around the corner and we could see the  Finish Line.  The time clock said 1:58.  At that moment we sprinted to the finish line and came in at 1:59.  We made our goal.  I know that I definitely didn't do it alone.  I am so grateful for the strength that Heavenly Father was able to give me, and allowed me to see that I do have angels with me always.  




I couldn't have done it without my support system.  Those who ran with me, and those who came and watched us cross the finish line.
