Well my father and I ran a half marathon and sad to say he did beat me. He did great and got 1st in his division. I got 7th in my division. It was a tough race with an ending hill that I had to walk for about 20 yards. My nipples after the race also hurt from the friction of my shirt. I started out the race slow because I have not been training and if I started out too fast I would have killed myself. I had a good pace and could have continued running. My father blew past me at the beginning leaving me in the dust. I think I last saw him at 2 miles.
My goal now is to run the St. George Marathon in 3 hours and 30 minutes. I will have to train hard this month, but I can do it. I think my father has the same goal and I think we can oth do it. He has the best chance because he has been training a little harder than me.
Oh yeah Cassie is doing great and we should have an updated pregnant picture of her on soon.
There are more pictures below, we did sweat a lot. It was very humid. It rained the whole drive to the race and poured on us as we went to the bus. We both did not know why we wanted to do this race, but when we crossed the finsh line we knew why? To look at the girl runners. Oh no wait it was to see my wife smiling and cheering me on at the finish line.
Who will finish first in the St. George Marathon? My dad or me? Let me know, give me some motivation.
