initiation

It is official Brighton has been initiated into the world of marathon running. This morning we both ran the Ogden marathon. She called me early in the year and asked me to run with her. Thanks for letting me tag along. It was Brighton's first marathon ever and my first time running this marathon. What a beautiful run.
Brett's work volunteered at the start line handing out water and picking up trash. It was cool to have Brett up there and the plus side was we didn't have to ride the busses up to the start and we got to stay in the truck for an hour and a half instead of freezing at the top.
Mile 23 Steph coming around the corner. This race is so cool. Let me tell you about the yummy stations. They were passing out bubble gum, gummy bears, licorice and cinnamon bears and the usual fruit and drinks.
At the end a great big hug from our little Teagan. After this kiss she told me that I needed to take a bath because I stinked. At least she is honest. Oh and those yummy treats at the finish were excellent too. I probably lost 5 pounds running and then gained it back eating great harvest bread, jamba juice and creamies. Did I mention that it was 80 out running!! We did it Brighton! So proud of you. Do you want to run Top of Utah?
