a great cloud of witnesses page 2 by ric gustafson
Charlie stretched his legs and tried to relax. He noticed the other runners were doing the same thing. This was his first major race. It was warm out. He began to doubt if he could finish the race.
The gun went off. Charlie started slowly in the middle of the pack. After three miles, the heat made him drop out of the pack. He was already thirsty. He grinned. He could see a water station ahead.
He stopped underneath the tent.
A grizzled old man handed him a cup of water.
Charlie quickly drank the water.
" I'm Noah". The old man gave another runner some water. " I'm here to give you encouragement".
Charlie ran out of the tent with renewed vigor.
