OKC Memorial Marathon

Above is a picture taken with my sister and mom at about 5:30am Sunday morning, right before the OKC Memorial Marathon.

Annnnnnd.... with my official training that lasted one month I finished in 4 hours and 13 minutes. As soon and I get around to purchasing the mid-run pictures, I'll post those, too.

What could have been better mother daughter bonding than running a marathon?

My mom and I ran together up until mile 14 and then I decided I needed to pick up the pace a bit. My mom finished in about 4 hours and 26 minutes, placing third in her age group. She's pretty much a bad motha...

My sister ran the half marathon so unfortunately I didn't get to see her until the very end, but it was pretty amazing to see her as I was running the last stretch to the finish line cheering me on. Her husband and B were true supporters and came out to watch, too.

Above is a pic of my mom and step-dad. Even my step-dad was out running the half. Next time we'll have to throw in my two brothers and it'll be an entire family affair. Aren't my parents adorable?

  1. Good job on the marathon! I wish my family would participate. They all say running is boring to watch. So I tell them to run instead!! ? So far it's a no go.
