OKC Memorial Marathon '11

So...this year was a little different.  It was the first year I didn't do the half marathon.  It was also the first year Josh and I got to run with the kids in the kid's marathon!  Good year to do that....rain, thunder, lightning, 40 degrees....1.2 miles?? Okay!

We were pretty glad we didn't sign up and pay and train for the 1/2.  It was pretty miserable out there!  But, we are so happy we spent the morning together....running in the rain, and freezing our fingers off!  It is one marathon we will never forget!


Here we are on our way.  Still thinking the rain is going to stop at any moment.  We are all smiling!



On our way to the starting line!  Still smiling!


Oooooo....decided to find a spot to stay dry for about 30 minutes.  They delayed the start time due to lightning.  Yay.  But....we are all still happy!


Finally!! Waiting to start....aaahhh....1.2, here we come!


 Got our snacks, medals, and we were DONE!  We were all SO cold...Dylan is bawling in this picture because he 'can't feel his hands'!  Neither could I.  Brrrrrr!

Space heater, hot chocolate, and hot showers came next.  We were glad to be home!
