Half Marathon!

Or running 13.1 miles.  Whew!  It makes me tired just typing that!  Obviously, I am not the one who ran a half marathon, but Brad, his brother-in-law Brandon, and cousin Mindy all did.  They all did a fantastic job.  Brad finished in 1 hour 58 minutes.  Brandon finished in 2 hours and 20 minutes.  Mindy finished in the middle of the two, I think at around 2 hours and 5 minutes.  Here is a picture of Brad giving high fives to us as he ran past.  Sarah was trying to get a picture, but he was just too speedy!  :)  Ash snapped this one.
After the race, all the finishers received medals as well as a snack and one of these nifty blankets to keep from getting chilled. 
Here is a shot of three people of whom we couldn't be more proud.  Way to go!!

I can't believe how many people I know were running there. Our stake is replete with competitive runners.
