His medal!
Yippee! for Kris! He ran 26.2 miles yesterday in raining, wet, 42 degree weather! He finished in 5 hours 40 minutes with a bulging tendon in his heel! What could make him do this? He ran to support World Vision, an organization that supports the poor throughout the world. There were 8 runners from our church. Half ran the 13.1 and half ran 26.2. I'm so thankful he made it in adverse conditions. Sam, our youth minister, preached and did a great job! "Let us run with perseverance, the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith."
