Supportive friends are life-giving in so many ways. I had a friend who used to run with me. We chose a 5k to do together once a month. She was faster than me, but after crossing the finish line she would come back and run to the finish line with me..... cheering me on all the way. I love your summary which is so true.
"We need friends to help us keep going when we aren’t sure that we’ll make it, to remind us to pace ourselves, and to celebrate when we have enough energy to surge forward with joy."

Love this, Jane! What a great image of a friend who ran back to be with you after her race finished!
We are still that kind of friend for each other even though I can't run any longer.
🥹😘 love this!
