The training is complete - I finished a 4 mile run tonight! Tomorrow evening I fly to Boston to meet my husband, children, uncle and aunt. The marathon is Monday - the weather is supposed to be ideal - cloudy, temperatures in the 50's - and a tail wind! My family will be waiting for me at the finish line!
I have been contemplating on what Bible verse will be my mantra - and last week's sermon comes to mind, as Jesus spoke his last words on the cross ... simply put "IT IS FINISHED!!" John 19:30b
God has been with me - guiding me along, as you my supporter's thoughts and prayers have also! This means so much to me, Uncle Al and Cousin Rosie... it is our hope that this disease (MS) is someday FINISHED so our children and grandchildren will not carry it!
As a closing comment.... I have to impart one last musing... I got my runner's singlet (bib) from MS today in the mail... I opened it and was surprised... my family bleeds blue and orange... the colors of my singlet are ... blue and orange!! Be thinking of me on Monday!
