Almost Made the Boston Marathon

A year ago last October, Meagan, Harris and I went down to St. George to visit Uncle Val and so Meags could run in the St George Marathon. She had trained faithfully and was in good shape for it. The plan was she had missed the deadline for using her time to qualify for last years Boston Marathon but she could use her time to qualify for the following year. She ran well and then hit a wall at about mile 21...big time!!!  She could not figure it out...No Good Reason!!! She was incredibly disappointed she had missed her qualifying time....no Boston Marathon 2013.

Yesterday watching the news she realized running her time she would have been crossing the finish line just about the time the bombs went off. Cory, Geof. Darla, and probably Cole, Dayne, and June would have been in the stands.

We appreciate God's hand in our lives and pray for those who mourn!!!

LOve,
Le Anne
