Well they finally did it!
More than 10 years after beginning their marathon odessey in Portland, my parents have completed most any runner's dream: to run in Boston on Patriot Day. After qualifying at last year's inaugural Eugene Marathon in Eugene, OR, they both were accepted into this year's 112th running of the Boston Marathon and were finally able to turn the dream into reality. Needless to say, I am very proud of both of them!
Not that they were out to run a PR or anything (they ran a comfortable pace, taking in the sights, taking pictures, listening to and enjoying the throngs of screaming fans lining the streets four and five deep), but just in case you're interested, their full race splits and finish times can be found here. Mom? Dad? Have you seen these? ; )
12 Glory Laps in 12 Hours
Last February 20th, I hiked and skied 12 laps on Mt. Glory. 19,638 feet climbed with skis on my back and 19,638 feet skied to raise money for Camp To Belong. It's snowing again and I'm ready for the 2nd edition! Click the logo for more info and ways to support camp!
