　　　 “We should stay behind the last runner, so take it slowly，” I said to the driver, Bob.

　　　 “Let's hope that the last runner is fast！” He laughed.

　　　 Soon the front runners started to disappear, and I saw a woman in a white T?shirt.

　　　 “Bob, look！”

　　　 We knew we were already watching our “last runner”.She was different from the others because of her age.

　　　 “I think she is over 60, too old for any sports match.How can she finish a marathon？” Bob said.

　　　 We watched in silence as she slowly moved forward.We would move forward a little, then stop and wait for her.Then we would move a little bit more.

　　　 As I watched her try to put one foot in front of the other, I found my heart beating for her.I wanted her to stop, but at the same time, I hoped that she wouldn't.

　　　 Soon she was the only runner that we could see.Tears ran down my face.She was so great! For her, it wasn't about beating the other runners or winning something; it was about finishing what she had decided to do.
