Well, we did it! The half-marathon was yesterday and it was amazing. Everyone of us completed it. The weather, in my opinion, was perfect. Just a little drizzly at the start and nothing but clouds the rest of the time. Perfect temperature and when we were completely done, it rained. Real rain. As usual, God's timing.
I was surprised at how invigorated I got once we were there. As many of you know, the training was for the most part, boring. With the exception of a few Fridays and Saturdays when I was fortunate enough to "group walk". But once we got to the real deal, I was downright excited! I even found myself jogging much of it. Not very long stretches, mind you. But many little stretches! In fact, once my aches and pains subside (and there are many!) I plan to pick up jogging. Who knows what is coming...maybe I'll run (jog) the whole thing next year! Or maybe I'll start with a 10K or something...who knew!
So to the meat of the matter....at this point we have raised $1691 for the well! Can you believe it??! The last time Iposted here, we were at $160! That's 35% of the goal which is of course $4800. We are going to leave the site open until Friday of this next week (May 16) for anyone who would like to make a last minute donation. You can do so by going to lifetoday.org/goto/teamlivingwater.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your support. Prayers AND finances. It has been an amazing experience. Enjoy the pictures!
