Avi Wolf proposes to Rachel Avisrur at the finish line of
the Miami Marathon
For most people, just finishing a half marathon is enough to
make a day memorable.
But for New York native Rachel Avisrur, the day became even
more special as she crossed the finish line Sunday, 3 hours and 42 minutes
after she began.
Her yarmulke-clad boyfriend, Avi Wolf, was waiting for her
with a bouquet of flowers, a ring, and a question, the Miami Herald reported.
Wolf dropped to one knee, and asked Avisrur to marry him.
She said yes.
“I’m like the happiest person ever,” Avisrur said. “I
thought he was in New York.”
Avisrur ran the race to raise money for Chai Lifeline, which
provides support and a camp for Jewish children with life-threatening
illnesses.
“You only live once,” Wolf said. “She supports Chai
Lifeline. I knew she was here and wanted to surprise her with something she
loves to do.”
