Way to go Alex!!

Zach & Chase waiting for dad


After the 26.2 miles

We returned home from our weekend trip to St. George where Alex ran in the marathon there. This is his 3rd time running this race. He had his best time ever at 3:46:18. He had a pretty good run (except for some stomach problems in the middle of the race), the weather was perfect and he was able to run with his friend, Cory until mile 17. We all had a good time cheering on the runners! Brad and Kelly (Quinn, Ansley and Holden) came with us and we had a lot of fun, as we always do when we're together. It was a quick trip but we did find time for Cafe Rio and to take the kids to see the temple.

Did Alex get a massage again and keep his bandaids on his nipples for everyone to see after he took his shirt off? haha

I am halfway through Eclipse, and it's much better than New Moon.
