St. George Marathon

As part of another great visit to Utah (loved being with such a fantasic fam, sweet and sad times as Dad was released as bishop) we tried something new - my (Pete's) first ever marathon, in the beautiful red rock mountains descending into St. George.


Julie and the boys were an awesome support crew. Julie brought the boys to the finish line wearing custom-made t-shirts - that really got to me. I think we were surprised at what a happy moment that was for us.


Likewise, I hadn't anticipated how cool and satisfying the race would be. It's much funner to race than train - with support stations, stunning scenery, thousands of fellow crazies, and of course that welcome crew at the end.


We were lucky to stay with generous friends who let the little men do some off-roading, too.
