What, run 34 miles????

So my wonderful husband has learned to run. And run very long distances. Last June was his first "ultra-marathon" which is basically anything more than a marathon. He did it with Brian Ewing from Juneau and they did great. A few months ago he signed up for this one in Olympia, WA. A 34 mile run. Last weekend, Brian and I drove up and he ran the race and I went from station to station cheering him on and getting him to eat and drink some tasty treats.




Here he is with only 8 miles left to run. He was pretty tuckered out, but finished the race in 7 hours and 17 minutes. A great time according to me!!



Just a description of the awesome weather we had during the race. Actually the first half was okay, but the second half was very, very WET. Next up: a 50 mile race in California in 9 weeks!!
