26.2 and 13.1

People are more important than things AND time.
We stuck together through all 26.2 miles and finished, holding hands across the finish line.


What a perfect metaphor for life.


P.S. Crowing time for Jonas... He finished the half marathon in 1:58!
He shaved 30 minutes off his 12 miler the week before.
WOW!


P.P.S. This was an amazing experience, so amazing that we are running another marathon in Bluff, Utah in a month.
(Why waste training?!?!)
Then we'll be done. Right?

What a great experience! You are so right about it being a metaphor of life. We really do have to help each other through. So you are going to do it --- again! Why don't you just run across the whole country? And Jonas - you rock. Are you trying out for the Olympics?
