Last Saturday was the Tommy Vaughn's Marathon & More in Blackfoot. McKenzie ran the 5k, Brian and Marcy ran the half marathon, and I ran the full marathon. We had great weather and it was a fun day! The marathon was long, and some parts had a pretty strong head wind, but I made it!! And, I even did two minutes better than the marathon I did last year!! Awesome!!
I'm so glad everyone else decided to run, too. It's so great to have family there for these things.
The races started and ended at Veteran's Memorial Park in Blackfoot.
McKenzie after her awesome 5k. Her best time yet!!
Marcy and Brian after the half marathon. Technically, a half marathon is 13.1 miles, but there was a mishap with the course and it ended up being about 13.9 miles! So proud of both of you!!
Eva and Ely had fun playing at the park waiting for us (mostly me) to finish.
Me after my marathon. So happy to see that finish line! Awesome!! It took me 4 hours and 56 minutes. I'm not super fast, but I'm pretty proud of being able to run for that long anyway!
Afterward we went to visit our good friend Carol Sagers. What a wonderful lady! Funny thing, I actually ran past her house while on my marathon!

I bet you were happy to see the finish line!
Good job everyone!
YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!! That is all I have to say.
That is truly amazing! almost 5 hrs of running?! good job! I am not a runner. I can jump rope for an hour (with potty breaks, lol) but I only make it half way around the park before I'm dying, lol. Your legs look like they are needing a break in that picture after you finished :).
