26.2


We loved cheering on the runners!

Daniel and his brother John


Daniel's brother ran in the Mississippi Blues Marathon on Saturday and we were able to cheer him on. He did incredibly well and acheived his goal. Supporting the runners reminded me of doing the same with Daniel in Washington D.C. over a year ago as he ran in the Marine Corp Marathon. It's amazing to know the committment and dedication it takes to train (torture) yourself until you can run 26.2 miles (and not die). Just wanted to share pics from Washington in 2006. I'm still so proud of my husband!

...and then -you came to my house! That was an awesome thing for Daniel to do. Cross off on the big to do list of life! We were/are so proud of him and he isn't even 'ours'. Yeah John!
