thanks guys! i looked about the same at the end of the race as in that picture...but it was a great experience!
nate, i am definitely not as fast as you...just had a good day.
thanks for your support!
Great new template on the blog. I love this layout.
So fun watching the race, it was a beautiful day.
Everyone in MN definitely missed out - Mark and Dad both ran great races, and Mark really turned on the speed in the last two miles to reach his goal. It was great to watch!
The last 10 minutes of Mark's race were filled with drama and the essence of the human experience. He ran a courageous race and met his goal--congratulations! Of course, the drama didn't end at the finish line--but continued with the first aid tent, missing the Boston qualifying time, achieving the Boston qualifying time--yes, quite the story. Thanks for everyone who made it to the race. Apprciated your sacrifice and support. Love, Dad
