Turned 30 and ran a half marathon.

On august 17th Jason turned 30!! In May he realized he was going to be 30 and started to freak out. He decided that running a half marathon would be a good way to celebrate. You would think that would mean he started to train everyday right. Nope, he ran a few times a week about 4 miles each time. I think his longest training run was 7ish miles. So the day of the big run I was secretly a bit scared for him. He went super early with his brother Shane and sister in-law Brenda. I packed the girls up a few hours later to wait by the finish line. Here they are patiently waiting for daddy to run by.


Olivia kept asking,"when is daddy coming?". I kept saying,"well it might be awhile.". Brenda had run a half a few months before and finished in just over 2 hours, so I figured with little training Jason would come in after that. To my surprise I looked up just in time to see him round the corner towards the finish line. He finished in 1 hour and 48 minutes!!!! Not only had he finished, but he did amazing! He came in before Shane and Brenda which I know he loved. I am so proud of him and still a little annoyed that he did so awesome with hardly training.
