Go, Daddy, Go!!

This past Sunday the boys and I (along with sweet cousin, Addison!) set out early (like 7 am early!) to cheer along our favorite half-marathoners – Daddy & Brett!!

They were both looking exceptionally good and light on their feet at mile 5 while we the fans watched them pass. Dad was stationed there with the first aid team in case any of the runners needed medical assistance - thankfully he wasn't needed :)

We saw them again around mile 7 and then headed down to Memorial Stadium for a thrilling finish. Below is a picture of the finish – though not specific to these two runners (because we seemed to miss that! they were too fast!).

It was a big accomplishment for both – Todd’s 4th half marathon and Brett’s very 1st!! They were able to run together step for step the entire race, which was an amazing feat in and of itself!!
