Day 82

Day 82.

Today I ran for Sharon.

Let me rephrase that.

Today I ran in honor of Sharon.  I ran so hopefully someday a wife isn't taken from her husband too soon, a mother isn't taken from her children, a grandmother from her grandchildren, a sister, daughter, friend isn't gone too early in their life.  I ran so that someday we can live in a world where we don't have to see our loved ones suffer through this terrible disease, cancer.  I ran so that hopefully Keira will not have to worry about living to see her children and grandchildren grow and live their lives.  I ran because it is the one thing I can do, raise money to help the scientists and doctors and trials to combat this disease.  I ran so that someday no family will have to go through what Nathan's family has.  I ran because I care so deeply about this, and because the hole Sharon has left is vast and deep.

82 days since I made this vow not to take for granted this life, this daily gift we are given.

82 days since I vowed to soak up the world around me.

I could not think of anything better to do than to spend this 82nd day running for Sharon.

 I was lucky enough to have my best friend run with me today.

 I am not exactly why running photos distort legs so much.

 This was probably me saying I had no idea where Kerrie was.

 

 Oh there she is!  Great job Kerrie!!

 Ty was there cheering me on.  Okay he was actually there saying mom, be faster.  *I finished under 30 minutes, I'd say that is decent*

 My mom was also there to cheer me on.  Thanks mom, I love you!!!!

 Ty, me and my brother, Travis
