Moab Half Marathon

The Moab Half marathon was my wife Kandi's first 1/2 marathon on the farthest she had run. She did awesome at 1:50:46. It was a great day and tons of fun. She had a bunch of ladies from the neighborhood run and everyone finished well. I was just along for the ride.

A picture of the runners/finishers! Troy, Kim, Tari, Cherie, Jenni, and my wife Kandi


















Great Job!

Salt Lake Marathon April 18, 2009

A little stroll through the Salt Lake Valley. This would be my friend Scott's first marathon and I volunteered to help him make it a successful finish. And that is exactly what we did. It was a great day for a run temps in the 40's at the start and nearly 70 at the finish. We had some friends with us, Keith Jensen was back in the run for his first marathon in 10 years and Scotty K was going for the Salt Lake double, he started at the finish at 2 am and ran to the start and was looking down the barrell of 52.4 miles and yes he got it done.

A few pictures of the event.
Keith, Scott and Troy feeling real good at mile 2
Scott Kunz 50 miles into a 52.4 mile day what an animal.
Just me, rocking along at mile 25
Liberty Park mile 23
At the finish line 4:12:18 not a bad first marathon. Great Job Scott!
