Half Marathon Run

I am currently training to fulfill a goal of mine that I have had since I was 16 - that is to run a half marathon, and then work my way up to run a full marathon. I will be running my first half marathon in Aoraki Mount Cook coming up on October the 3rd. I have always loved running, but in my early 20's I damaged the ligaments in my right foot and ankle which made it hard for me to be able run any decent amount of distance. I am so grateful to say now, that I am able to run without the pain and issues I used to have - and give thanks to God for that. However I don't just want to run the race for myself. I have been profoundly blessed over the past year, to not only experience a deep and personal connection to God but to also have such a wonderful Church family around me. I want to run the race for them as a small gesture of my appreciation and to give back in some way for all that Hope Church has blessed me with. If you feel you would like to support me in this cause, your donations would be greatly appreciated. May God bless you all!
