They had broken up, choosing to take some time to figure out more to their vocation. Were they supposed to be a priest and a sister? Where should they move? So they separated, closing a chapter in their book, Claire said. Then six months later, she’s at the starting line of the pdxmarathon and Huy sees her. An ex-boyfriend was the last person you ever want to see before a 26-mile run, Claire admitted. They chatted some, then they ran. Maybe she ran away from him, maybe she didn’t. And though she didn’t beat him, in the end she won. He proposed last September in Portland’s cathedral and they’ll have a July wedding. Now they’re at #WorldYouthDay. Huy said if they can survive panama2019, their future marriage can survive anything. I think they’ll be alright. • #StoriesFromWYD • PS. Hi, happy 2019! This is my 1000th post, figured it might as well be from something epic and ridiculous like #WYD2019.
