GO!! And we were off. I start running but not too fast going downhill. I start to get a cramp. I keep running and running.
Mile 1. 6:41. Finally we start going uphill till we get to an aid station. It is soon in the race but that is ok because we were going on a out and back and come back to the aid station. I take a tiny sip and throw the rest down. I keep running.
Mile 2. 8:26. We do small hills and big down hills. I have a bad feeling that there is going to be a big hill.
Mile 3. 8:48. I am running with a friend, Mo (Bartely). Then I see an uphill and see Emerson up ahead (Leah’s 
brother). When we got to the top we started going down and back the way we came. I see a friend (Kayden, Mason’s dad) and my Mom. I give her a hive five.
Mile 4. 8:59. I get back to the aid station and take a small sip and do not drink the rest. I see the 1 mile sign for 5k and know there is 1 mile left. I feel joy wash over me because I am almost done. My legs start hurting so bad I want to stop but I do not. We cross a creek and I am so close to finishing.
Mile 5. 10:22. I run up a hill and am so close to the finish line. I sprint in and am so happy.
Mile 5.2. 10:07 pace. The Lord helped me get though it.
