Oh my friend.

As I promised here is my Marathon Singlet :

My unique Marathon singlet with printed #hhhigh

During the middle of the run, I wanted to give up. It was tough; my body was falling apart, and both my calves were acting up. I drank water and had energy gels. But somehow, Philippians 4:13 came to my mind, nourishing my muscles, and I ran with all my heart.

When I reached 34km, it seemed like I had entered another level. This was my personal record; I had never run this far before. But I gave it my all, despite the unkind weather that made it feel like a scorching summer day. I was thankful for the ice that helped cool down my sweaty, overheated body. I promised myself that I had to finish the marathon, with no intention of giving up. Even if it meant crawling to the finish line, I was determined to complete the race.

I knew my God is faithful – he gave me strength to run even my muscle torn up and so weak.

This is the story of my Sydney Marathon run. 17 September 2023, Sunday 7:10am.

42.2km in 5:11:22

I made it to the finish line- I created a new record in my book 📚, it seems impossible but All Things Are Possible – I ran 42.195 km in 5 hrs and 11 mins.

I took a photo with the sponsor, ASICS.

I face towards heaven and say thank you God , thanking Jesus- Who is like our God?

My friend , our God is faithful , He is able to help you, in whatever season you are , Trust Him. In your career, in your home, on the way , in sickness , in the joy …

Yes , thank God . I reached to the finish line

Your friend
