A Daring New Goal
No sooner had I begun processing all the unanswered questions than Alan presented a new challenge. “What do you think about running a marathon together—for charity?” he asked casually, like it was just another Sunday plan. His confidence was disarming, and I blinked, unsure if he was serious. But one glance at his expression—a mix of playfulness and resolve—told me he absolutely was. It was bold, wildly ambitious, and completely in character for this new version of Alan who never seemed to stop pushing limits.
Even though hesitation flickered in my chest, I couldn’t help being swept up in his enthusiasm. This was Alan’s way now—leaping into challenges headfirst and daring the world to keep up. His proposition wasn’t just about running; it was another layer to the mystery, another chance to witness his remarkable evolution. Something told me that this marathon wouldn’t just be about distance—it would test endurance, faith, and maybe even reveal more about the road he’d traveled. So, I said yes.
