Marathon Relay

This morning G and I along with his mom and a friend of hers (Mike) participated in the St. Louis Track Club's Marathon Relay. Each of us ran 3.25+ miles twice. It was a perfect morning and the kids had fun watching all the runners and eating all of Mike's snacks! Thank goodness he didn't mind giving up all of his raisins. Our team (The 169ers) ended up winning first in our division, which was the 160+. (All of our ages added up to over 160, actually it was 169, hence our team name.) We were pleasently surprised when G crossed the finish line and our team's time was 3 hours 17 minutes! Way to go team!
