One inch from being hit from behind by a semi truck passing another in the dark around a curve at mile 2. I never gave quitting the run a thought until then. Closest I came to dying ever, his mirror was over my head and the 30 MPH head wind hitting me had my head down leaning forward, I felt it sucking me in. I thought about all the people I would miss and the people I would never help if I died. So is it selfish to continue when you weigh them what does it mean. You know I came close to be talking like this. I always felt it was my destiny to do this. I bought a flash light and will carry it backwards in my hand, the road has no shoulder all the way through Montgomery. I came back to the motel with a couple of tears, I will think about this tomorrow, the Lord will give me the answer. No pictures, saw huge buck, lunch stolen 2 days in a row. |
