Anna and Travis ran the Ogden Half Marathon on May 10. Brigham, Travis's brother, and Tyson, brother-in-law, also ran. They all did super. This was Anna's and Tyson's first half-marathon. Anna and Travis trained hard. They were both frustrated to have their final weeks of training get interrupted by life, but they were both happy with their times. Anna got a 1:57 and Travis a 1:49. Brigham came in earlier by a few minutes. He is an awesome runner and coaches many runners, including Anna. I was happy at how much she enjoyed the race because the training has been no fun for any of us :). I love watching a marathon or half marathon. I've never run one myself, and never plan to, but I like the environment. It feels happy, healthy, and positive. Even walking around in my pudgy nursing mom state, I feel like I'm suddenly healthier just by being around everyone! We all went to Kneaders in Layton after the race and enjoyed bottomless french toast. Mom Dastrup trained hard for the race and was putting in serious miles until she got an injury and had to lay off running. She is amazing!

Travis and Anna. This particular race was Travis's idea. He loves to make a goal and rally others around him. He lost 50 pounds and I'm so proud of him!

Annie Willis. I like this picture because it shows Annie as I think of her: always smiling (and ready to help anyone), always efficient, and always on the go. I long to be efficient! Please rub off on me.
