So proud of my husband:)
He's always talked about running a marathon. He ran the mini last year. Then about 6 months ago, he decided he was going to do the full marathon and signed himself up for the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon. No one talked him into it, he simply did it because he wanted to. So he trained off and on throughout the summer. Life is busy though, and it's not easy to set aside 6-8 hours of your time each week to run. But he trained what he could and then the day of the race arrived.
The kids and I waited at the finish line to cheer Daddy on.
I cried like a little baby the whole time. Something about seeing those runners cross the finish line after 26 grueling miles just chokes me up. They did it, and they are amazing.
It got a little cold and kiddos started to get cranky, but we were not going to miss Cody's big moment:)
After 26.2 long miles through the freezing cold rain and sleet...
we spotted our guy!
Holy smokes... we were SO happy to see him!
he hurt. a lot.
but he did it, and we couldn't be more proud:)
