In Michigan, Hamilton Elementary School students created a "finish line" by standing on either side of the hallway so their principal could finish the marathon interrupted by the cruel blasts.

"We felt bad that she couldn't finish the 26.2 miles. So, we decided that we would help her finish," fourth-grader Ryan Smalley told CNN affiliate WDIV.

The students cheered for Principal Pam Mathers as she dashed to the finish line, high-fiving the students along the way. Some teachers watched, tearfully.
"You know what? I may not have gotten the medal but I've gotten many many more rewards from you," Mathers said Wednesday. "All of you are my medals."
