TJ ran the St. George Marathon last Saturday and finished with an outstanding time of 3 hours and 5 min, looks like we are going to Boston in April!!!! In order to qualify for Boston he had to run it in 3 hours 10 min or under. My husband is such an inspiration for me in so many ways, he continues to amaze me every day. I always say I ride on his coat tails, it's hard to keep up with this guy. He's one who sets goals and always reaches them, I set goals and well, reach for them. We are so so proud of him. TJ's dad and sister also ran the marathon with great times, we are so proud of them as well. All of the hard work paid off and made for a great couple of days for the whole family. We headed to St. George a few days early to meet up with TJ's mom, dad, Sister, her husband and for kids, TJ's brother, his wife and two kids. We went to Zion National park, Snow mountain or snow fall (can't remember) state park, outlet mall, splash park for the kids etc. It was such a great time for our family. The marathon was on Saturday, we left Sunday evening to fly to Chicago. TJ had meetings for work so it was a perfect opportunity for the boys and I to visit friends and soak up some of the city. Unfortunately I forgot to get my camera out of TJ's bag before he headed to the hotel, so I'll have to get pictures from friends and post the Chicago visit later.

Congratulations TJ!!! I am so excited that he qualified for Boston! That is awesome! No worries, the toe nails will grow back... I think almost everyone who runs that race loses atleast one! What a strong finish as well. I hope it was a great experience for all of you. Also, Ginger, your pics are so pretty! Can't wait to hear more about your stop in Chicago.
ahhh - the worst part of running - the toes.
its a good thing you took off from chicago - this time of year those babies would have to be tucked away in some serious winter boots - and despite Ts kind words - they would never grow back!
the perfect goal to set and finish is the half in april!
tj - congratulations - we know you will rock boston!
Congrats, TJ! Very cool indeed. Ginger, the pics are great and I'm glad you guys had a good time in Utah and Chicago! We miss you!
