I ran this with my son. He had never ran more than 9 miles at one time. I was not sure how he would do but he rocked it! I always walk the last mile, it is a steep up hill but he said he had thing to do and he just ran up it like it was totally flat. I am not sure that he will BQ his first marathon but I now know he can finish. If I could just get him to train I am sure he would kill it...I guess at 18 you have to many other fun distractions to run all the time!

At mile 10 a 5K race passed us on the other side of the road we must have subconsciously pick up the pace it was is our fastest mile, half of it is up hill!

Splits: 9:07, 8:56, 8:42, 9:04, 8:49, 8:58, 9:13, 9:16, 9:18, 8:42, 9:17, 9:57, 9:29, 13:33 (walk up hill)

That is SO AWESOME you got to run with Nick (wait, is that his brother's name?) He will do fantastic at SGM. I'm so excited for you and him.

It puts a smile on my face to picture you two subconsciously picked up the pace when you saw the 5K runners.

BTW, no fair that these young guns can charge up the hills like a walk in the park! :)

Pretty cool that he ran that far with you. Yeah, it's gotta be tough fot a teenager to want to train when there are so many other things to do.

That sounds so fun. I hope my kids will run with me in a few years and hopefully not make too much fun of me for being slow. way to go! I hope you are having a wonderful summer.

I have been wondering all day how your run went with Nick....sound like it was great and you splits were great.

You should hear about my great run.....I WISH!!!
