On Saturday Preston ran his second marathon. It was a perferct day for running (and watching)! We went up Friday to Ogden to get Preston's bib and learn a little bit more about where we needed to go the following day and where spectators were allowed to be to watch. We spent the night at my parents house so that we didn't have to pay for a hotel. Lucky for us they were in Las Vegas for the weekend so we didn't worry about waking them up at 4 in the morning! Jonny was nice enough that he tagged along and we cheered Preston on.
He did an AMAZING job! He took off an hour and fifteen minutes from our first marathon. His final time was 3 hours 43 minutes. He has another marathon on June 9th and then he is planning on doing just the St. George Marathon in October. He is training so hard!
The final goal, qualify for the Boston Marathon: qualifying time 3 hours 5 minutes!
