Shona Renay
Some lives tread a straightforward path to the finish line, while others meander, fracture, and spiral back, and emerge on the other side even more beautifully than ever envisioned. “Run Your Race with Grace” is Shona Renay’s raw reflection on love, loss, unwavering faith, and the silent courage required to persevere when life inflicts relentless pain. Amidst challenging seasons, impossible choices, and moments that nearly broke her, Shona reveals profound insights gained through life’s toughest lessons: grace doesn’t erase the past; it becomes your steadfast companion on your journey as you run your race.
Not every life follows a straight path.
Some break. Some rebuild. Some find their way forward one step at a time.
Run Your Race with Grace is Shona Renay’s story of love, loss, faith, and the quiet strength it takes to keep moving when life feels overwhelming. Through hardship, heartbreak, and moments that could have ended her story, she discovered something she didn’t expect—grace.
Not grace that makes everything easy,
but grace that stays with you… and carries you through.
About The Author
Shona Renay
Shona Renay is a wife, mother of four, and proud grandmother whose life has been shaped by faith, resilience, and the sustaining grace of God. Raised in the Texas panhandle, she learned early how to endure, how to keep going, and how to hold onto what matters most.
Her story is not one of perfection, but of perseverance. It has been shaped by love, loss, hard lessons, and the quiet strength it takes to keep moving forward. Through every season, her family has remained her greatest blessing and her deepest purpose.
A near-death experience in 2000 changed the way she sees life, eternity, and grace. Today, she writes with honesty and humility—not as someone who has it all figured out, but as someone still learning, still trusting, and still choosing to run her race one step at a time.
Shona Renay is not just a wife, mother of four, and grandmother of four; she is a testament to resilience, grace, and unwavering family devotion. Hailing from the Texas panhandle, Shona’s life was forged in the crucible of endurance, teaching her the values of hard work, silent strength, and relentless forward momentum.
Her remarkable journey is a tapestry woven with love, loss, perseverance, and faith. Through every high and low, her children and grandchildren have been her inspiration, the driving force behind this compelling book, and the catalyst for each hard-hitting truth she bravely shares.
In 2000, a near-death experience reshaped Shona’s perspective on life, eternity, and grace, leaving an indelible mark on her soul. Today, she writes with humility and authenticity, not as one who has all the answers, but as a traveler still on the path, learning, believing, and taking it all in for each and every grace-filled step in her ongoing race.
