The 78 year old man who after collapsing under the blast from the bomb... got back up and finished the race. We ALL should take his example and know that though others may try to knock us down, it is our own will that gets us back up.

Be blessed.

Who is your first mile dedicated to?

    My first miles were for the brothers who each lost a leg. One lost his left, the other his right. In the hospital they were both more concerned about how the other was doing rather than themselves.
