The St. George Marathon
That's Chris in the blue about to cross the finish line All 26.2 miles of it traversed by Chris - he's been training since May of this year. Chris and his Dad both ran this year. Both got up at 4:40 am that morning to catch the bus out of St. George. Both ran in the cold rain for hours. Both had serious time for their brains and bodies to give in to the intense pressure both physically and mentally. Both didn't let that happen. Both finished very wet, very tired, and very proud. (The rest of us were just wet and proud :))
Chris's personal goal was to finish under four hours (difficult for even seasoned runners) and, low and behold, he did it! Official time: 3:59:38
