Jonathan's Marathon!

This past Saturday Jonathan completed his first Marathon!  A little over a month ago I over heard some ladies talking about this FREE race that the kids run/walk 25 mile prior to the race and then finish the 1.2 and they receive a medal.  I pretty excited about it, however getting the 25 mile accomplished before the race day was challenging but he did it! When race day came he was so excited, and so was I!  I was a little emotional (but check it in check) since I love running and maybe Jonathan might share that same love! Jonathan has a hard time saying marathon, so he calls it his amazon! ;)

We are in a parking garage you cant see it but behind us is the finish line!

 This is about the start of the race!

 Sarah was bummed that she couldn't run it!  But next year she will be in kindergarten and will be able to!

 Jonathan was standing by the kindergarten sign and wouldn't budge from that stop, he was really excited!  It was really cold, but it was suppose to rain!  So I was SO THANKFUL that it wasn't!

 We met up with our friends, Jonathan and Schafer ran together!

 Sarah with her Best Friend, Jasper got out for a minute so Sarah was very happy to take his stop! ;)  Aren't they so cute together!

 This is how they ran the first quarter of the the race!

 Look at our all star!  They both did great!

 Jonathan was so proud, and so was I!  I was sad that I didn't get to the finish in time!

They did it!

Jonathan, Schafer, and Saffi

After we went and saw Dad at the expo and the kids got some candy.  We played a little in the bounce toys!

Then we headed home before the rain got us!  It was a blast, I am so glad we did it!
