Here is David at the starting line anxiously awaiting the start. We woke up at 4:30 a.m. so we could get him there by the 6:05 start time. We arrived around 5:30 a.m. so he could stretch and loosen up. The kids were such great troopers. They wanted to support their dad.

I think this picture is around mile number 18. He was hurting a little at this point. Still had 8 more miles to go.
This was mile 14.
This was mile 5, you can tell cause he still has a smile on his face!
Here he is approaching the finish line. It was downtown Salt Lake City at the Gateway. His finish time was 3 hours 55 minutes. He came in 1st place in the Clydesdale bracket ,which is anyone over 200 pounds. He came in 49th in his age group. This was a huge time commitment because of training, but we are really proud of him. This was his first marathon and possibly his last. Good Job David!
