I did it!

I ran the Memphis Grizzlies House 5K, St, Jude's race for TEAM JAKE! My time wasn't the greatest, but it wasn't that bad either since I had to walk most of the way. I woke up sick the Monday before and I got worse as the week went along. I stayed at the Peabody with Gina, Amber, and Lena. When I went down to the race, I thought I had missed the group picture for Team Jake, but I saw them and ran over. I got to meet Melanie (Mo), Jin-Jin, and Veronica. I had met the Kaufman's the night before. I told them all it felt like I was meeting celebrities! I was truly overwhelmd about getting to finally meet them in person! I saw Staci as I was on my 3rd mile! They are all beautiful people...outside and IN! I've always been inspired by them and still am. I continue to share their story to others. As I was walking the race I prayed for this precious family and others. I know that their arms still just ache to hold sweet Jake, and I prayed for God to keep them close as he always has! I hope to run the half marathon next year! With Jake in mind, I bet I can!
