The turning   3  came when I met Mrs. Green. She was fifty years old, going through chemotherapy(化学疗法)for her cancer, and still managed to run 30 miles a week.

Two months later, I   5  the running for the first time. I felt very tired, but I felt happy.

After continuing to   8  myself, I knew it was time to step my training up. I   9  I would train for the Detroit Free Press/Flagstar Marathon.

As I   13  the finish line, I experienced the strongest sense of   14  and happiness I had ever had in my life. I am now a marathoner.
As John Bingham once said, “The miracle(奇迹)isn’t that I finished. The miracle is that I had the   15  to start.”
