That’s Grace with the biggest grin on her face I’ve ever seen!  The bright light just behind her is Michelle.  I know it’s not the best picture, but it was dark, Grace was running really fast, and it was the best I could do with my phone. 

She ran 2.5 miles, which included the hardest hill on 5 Mile Drive, and Michelle said she ran the whole darn hill!  I have a special place in my heart for Grace (and her sister Kiera), and watching her cross he first finish line brought tears to my eyes. 

All I know is that every runner should have that much joy in their hearts while running!  I can’t wait to see all the finish lines Grace has ahead of her!  I am so proud of her!
