Flower City Half Marathon - April 29, 2012

Yes, it was my second half marathon in April and within a two week span. I had trained with Fleet Feet (a local running store) and met some great folks along the way. I was fighting shin splints, so I opted to walk/run and not worry about my time. I hadn't met these three lovely ladies when I started training in January, and as you can see we had a blast!

Noah's was the B.O.B. and Red Bull award - his trick was to bounce the puck off the boards and head down the ice to score, and he never quit so Coach thought he was taking an energy drink to keep going!
