Utah Marathon Relay and Children's Race

I know this is a random picture, but I needed documentation of how early this race was! I actually got there at 6:00 am, but was in the wrong spot, so I took a picture while I was waiting. I felt so bad for the race committee-the city forgot to come and turn on the lights and open the bathrooms-we registered everyone in the dark with a tiny flashlight.

I really enjoyed helping with this event. I got to help register runners, prepare food, help everyone figure out where and when they were supposed to be to where they were supposed to be. It was fun! The man behind me ran wearing a white button down shirt...hmmm....

I got to start off the whole race.

Our friends Jim and Rachel Allen from Logan drove down for the relay. Rachelle ran it-Jim supported :)

A picture with Todd who put the entire marathon relay together. It was a great event.

Palmer loved the race! He ran almost the entire thing-he only stopped to walk a little bit. He came up after and thanked me for "letting him run."

The whole family before the children's race.

At the beginning of the children's race Hunter was full of energy and wanted to run it himself. After a few yards however, he decided that he would like me to carry him. So I carried him on my back, hip and any place else he would sit. We had to look at the flowers, the water, the runners...it was a long mile.

I think that Hunter and I were the very last two people to come in.

They had the funnest band there, it wasn't until the end that I realized the lead singer was my old seminary teacher Brother Baugh.

These medals made for some very happy boys!
