It was PERFECT weather for Scott's 2nd marathon run! It was about 55 degrees, cloudy, little wind and no rain. He did AWESOME!! He finished the 26+ mile course is 3 hours 43 minutes (4 minutes quicker than last year). My future sister in law, Kim & I met Scott at various points on the course to hand him energy gels & bars. It is quite the rush trying to beat him to the next point on the course. We met up with him at while he was crossing the bridge at mile 1 (we were in the car driving by him) miles 4, 8, 11, 13, 20, 22, 24 & at the finish line. He looked great each & every time we saw him & even was cracking jokes at miles 13 & 20! He says he feels pretty good, his legs are a bit sore (no kidding), but feeling good!! The kids & I are SO proud of him. He is off of work tomorrow & Tuesday in case he needs it to recover. Here are some pictures of him on the course.
RAMS VS. STEELERS
Jake had another football game on Saturday against the Steeler, which is a bunch of kids that he knows from St. Pat's school. He had a couple of good plays, he caught a pass and ran for a small gain & he had a great handoff that accounted for a 1st down. He was pretty pumped up about that. They did lose by 1 touchdown, but he was o.k. with that after Scott chatted with him about winning & losing!
DINNER WITH THE GREEN GIRLS
My parents kept the kids overnight last night so that Scott & I could go to dinner with my brother Michael & his fiance Kim and the Green girls (my childhood friends, who are sisters...there are 5 girls...only 3 were at dinner last night) and their spouses. We had a nice visit...Scott really enjoys hanging out with his old roommate from college, Gopher (who married a Green girl).
