A little stronger, fresher, brougher.

People always say I'm "crazy" for running. Like it is insane or something. For me, it's something I can control. In a world of pull of people with free agency and life that can be changed by that, I seem to over-control (if that can be done) the things that I can. I can wake up at 12 am, hop out of the van and run up a huge hill for miles, pushing so hard, in so much pain but not wanting to stop, but i cant control my dads choices, or my friends choices, or anyone's choices but my own. Ragnar is not an easy thing my friends, but i have the choice to do it, and do it to my very best ability. When I would get to the point of wanting to stop I would say to myself "you have survived every possible heart aching thing this year, you can survive just one more mile". And guess what, I did!! 32 hours and 12 miles later i finished Ragnar Wasatch Back. It's amazing how much I have change from last year and how I learned from my mistakes. Im excited for my future and I know it's never going to be what I expect, it will be better. I can't believe that I am a senior. High school sure isn't what I thought it would be. If they told me that I would end up here, with divorced parents, a friend who committed suicide, and SBO secretary, I wouldn't have believed you. I'm grateful for the trials who have made me who I am. I am grateful for my few friends who have stuck with me and for my bunches of other friends who I know Heavenly Father sent to me for a certain purpose. All I gotta do is keep plugin through. <3
