26.2 Miles!!

Mark and I ventured up North once again this week for the Top of Utah Marathon. Mark has been training and running all summer long for the Saint George Marathon which is coming up in a couple of weeks. Mark and a couple of his running buddies decided the Logan Marathon would be a good warm up for the Saint George Marathon. It was kind of a cool and occasionally rainy day in Logan but Mark said it was perfect for running. He finished the race in 3 hours and 59 minutes. He was hoping to finish a little faster but his goal was to finish it under 4 hours so He did meet his goal! We are very proud of him. We also got to stop and see Mark's brother Clint and his wife Amy and their cute family. Clint and Amy just moved to Eagle Mountain into a new home and neighborhood. Their home was darling and I loved the neighborhood and area! We are excited for Clint and Amy to come see us in a couple of weeks. Clint is going to run the Saint George Marathon with Mark.
