Rebecca is gone. She was taken from us yesterday morning 4 miles into her run by a hit and run driver.
I want to believe it is a nightmare but as I sit here it continues to sink in that she is no longer with us. I feel like I should be picking her up at the next stop along the road but I just keep missing her.
Keith and her family appreciate all of the thoughts and prayers and will continue to need those in the days and weeks to come. I do too.
I have typed and deleted so much here - so much I want to say but so much I canāt even put into words.
If it helps, please know she was doing what she loved and she didnāt suffer. I keep asking myself why but we may never fully understand Godās plan.
Life is short and very precious - hug your loved ones a little tighter and longer and live for the day. She would have wanted you to.
Thank you for those that have followed her journey. I am blessed to have spent these last few days with her. Her journey continues but she just had to change courses. As hard as that is for us left here to accept.
She had made it 265 out of about 870. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
Iām so sorry to learn of this. I did not know Rebecca, but as a fellow runner I highly respect and admire her accomplishments and the goal she set to conquer.
Iād like to find a way to honor her memory with miles.
Will you let me know two things?
-How far (total miles) was her ultimate goal for her run across Texas?
-How much of that in (miles) had she already completed before her change in course?
My prayers are going up for her loved ones and dear friends.

One day we will run together again.
Until then my footfalls will fall with you in mind.
RIP my dear sweet cousin. You will live on forever in our hearts. Prayers to all your family and friends.
