AMAZING…I finished the HALF MARATHON here in the Philippines, Manila.  I ran with 31 other M Squad World Racers.  We’re on our 3rd month of the race.  I have never ran a half marathon, in fact, never ran 13 miles at once, but praise be to God, I finished.  And I accomplished my goal of not walking.  I got under 10 minutes/mile, so I’ve given myself something to work up to for my next half marathon.  I think I’ll try and run one on each continent, so Africa and Europe are next.  
 
 
 AND THANK YOU for financially and prayerfully supporting David Shaw.  I wanted to run for a purpose, so I ran for David, for his ministry here on the race.  If you would like to donate 1$, 5$, or 10$ per mile I finished, 13 miles, then go to
 
Check out these pictures…oh by the way…my legs were absolutely hurting when I finished, it was mainly my calves, and then the next day I could barely walk, lol.  All 32 of us racers went out to eat afterwards but my stomach held it down for literally 5 seconds.  I was in the bathroom for the next few days, but now I’m perfectly fine. And the hilarious part was that for the first time I think I stretched my body more than I have since playing Varsity baseball in High School and I could totally feel it, but I think I stretched it even more than High School ball, even at my elderly old age of 28.  So, I’m here to say, 28 is the new 18!!! You too can run a half or full marathon. 🙂
