Joe vs the half marathon



Today was the Air Force Marathon. Joe signed up to run the half marathon a while back. He started off training everyday, but then he started a new job in August. His new job does not leave very much time for anything but work and family. So I decided that the boys and I should go out and support Joe. I was not sure if we were even going to be able to see him run, but I wanted to be there for him. The race started at 8:30 and we got to the race around 9:30. We got a spot pretty close to the finish line and it was front row. We had to wait a little over an hour until we saw Joe running. If you live in Dayton and have not been to the race you should go. It was a lot of fun seeing the runners and the crowd cheering everyone on.


I packed alot of snacks and toys to keep the boys occupied.



Go Joe Go!! I really thought I was going to miss him going by since I was having to deal with the boys also. But we saw him and as you can see we got a pretty good picture.



My two Joes and Levi!!



His goal was 2hrs and 30mins

His official time was 2hrs 15mins

Way to go Joe!! We are really proud of you!!
