I joined in on the run! It was a moving day! I committed to pray for Ryan’s family on every run I did in the month of Nov. It was extra special running on 17th.

I ran 5.5 on Nov 18th as well in honor of Ryan Shay. It was special for me because it was also the 7th anniversary of my father’s death. He was a runner.

Run Gazelle of Grand Rapids, MI ran 5.5 miles on November 17. We encouraged each other to be thankful we can run and to strive to positively impact another runner’s life as Ryan Shay has done to so many.

I ran 5.5 for Ryan on Saturday.

I prayed for his wife, his family, his friends.

I prayed for runners and coaches and future runners who will be touched by the legacy Ryan left behind.

I prayed for myself that I would be able to run pain-free again someday soon.

I thanked God that I was out there running and for all the wonderful gifts that He has blessed me with through running.

5.5 for those who live and love running. 5.5 for those who grieve. 5.5 to feel alive. God has used you Ryan and will continue to use your life and experience to the benefit of others. You live on.
