My Wife's 23rd TC Marathon and Henry's PR 5K!

Two weeks ago was the Marathon/10 Mile weekend. My son ran his 6th or 7th 5K that Saturday morning, and I took him down to his race to cheer him on.

2300 people starting!


Here comes Henry! He's looking for me to throw his sweatshirt at me.

We figured it wouldn't be fast as he was running on just soccer training - he hadn't been out for a run in weeks. And he wanted to pin his number on his shorts, but I said "No, it's like 50 degrees... you won't be taking off your shirt."

Well, after 20 minutes, he came running by... WITHOUT HIS DAMN SHIRT ON:

He runs HOT like his Dad.


Running off with about 0.2 miles to go.


Post-race with a classmate who was about a minute faster than him.


WHAT'S THAT ABOUT A "SLOWER 5K" ONLY
ON SOCCER TRAINING?!?!? HE ENDED UP PRing!!!

Nice work Henry!!

Then Sarah and I had her marathon and my 10 mile the next morning. Here are some pics from her day:

Her and her training buddy Alicia.


The 2 of them again.


Without her partner - Sarah was feeling rough and Alicia was feeling good!


We saw her around mile 17 - those are our boys!




Charlie and I looking for her at mile 21...


... here comes Mama!


Alicia and Sarah after the finish!




She WORKED to break 5!! She realized it could be possible
with a few miles left and really put the hammer down!


Icing her legs (knees and butt) under the blanket while Bruce keeps her warm.

Congrats hunnie!! This one was rough, but she got through it! :)
