Celebrating the feat with D and the boys!
The runners!
Coming in at the finish line. Patrick, Janette's husband, snapped this shot! Check out those legs!!! Oh, yeah!
Last Sunday, I completed the SC Half Marathon! And by God's grace, I was able to run most of the 13.1 miles by myself. I had started the race with Janette and Chuck, but was unable to maintain under a 9 minute pace, so I scaled back at mile 6, and they pressed on. Daniel and the boys made signs for me and cheered for me at miles 9 and 11, and then at the finish line. D also brought a drum at mile 11 and played it while shouting, "Go, Tiff!" I was elated! And I felt SO loved!!! Mom and Dad were also at the finish line screaming and taking pictures. Praise God for my cheerleaders!!! The most noteworthy thing about the race was that the participants were a mix of shapes, ethnicities, and sizes. There was no clear prototype for the half marathon, and that made it all the more special. Thank you God for the blessing of running. This was race was a HUGE triumph for me!
