9/29/2012 ~~ Huntsville Marathon

JJ, Jason, Kevin, Troy, and Matthew at the start
 The finish - under 4 hours - a new PR!!!
The entire family!

My neighbor, Kevin, convinced me to sign up for this race. 
He knows my goal of running a marathon under 4 hours.
He ran the first 16 miles of the course at an overall 6:30 pace, 
which was a lot faster for him than normal.
So, here's to hoping that gravity will help me reach my goal!!!

There were five of the guys from our neighborhood that ended up running it.
We all did great!  Three were first-time marathoner's and some completed personal records!

Ashlee and Rossie were waiting to cheer me on at mile 21.5 and the finish.
Bridger and Libby got to play at Stuart and Carol's house
They are all great support in all of my endeavors!  THANK YOU!

Time = 3:59:26.5
Pace = 9:08
