This past weekend Justin ran his 3rd half marathon. This one was in Jackson, TN (about an hour away from Memphis). It was really low key so it was an interesting race. His goal was under 2 hours.
The starting line:The finish line was in a parking lot so we just pulled up the car right next to it and hung out in there a lot of the time while Justin was running. Here's JoJo sitting up like a big boy!Justin's cheering section. Donna was so awesome and stayed a few days extra to attend the race with me. I didn't know what to expect so I thought I would need some help with the kids, but I probably would have been just fine... I didn't realize what "low key" really meant. But we were happy to have her there!!And here is our future marathon runner... He had such a fun time running around our chairs over and over while we cheered him on. When we stopped cheering he said, "Go Jackson... PLEEEASE" (he wants all the attention) :)And here he is coming into the finish line. He rocked his goal and came in at 1:53!! Way to go babe!Jackson ran right up to him after and gave him a hug and kiss.We are proud of you Just!!

WAY TO GO, Just!!! He has a whole lot of motivation!
Go Justin!! That's really awesome... and he had the cutest cheering section around!
Congrats Justin. You probably could have done a marathon with all the training you have done. The boys are darling... Jonah is getting so blonde! I'm sad to see Jackson's hair go, but I understand why:(
Good to see another post.
Oh, I forgot to mention the new header. I love it, even if I remember how sick those poor boys (all of them) were.
WAY TO GO JUSTIN!!! I'm so glad I was able to be there and cheer you (and Jackson) on. Loved my visit
and had a great time!!!
oh yay Justin! Something I am pretty sure I will never do is run marathons or even half marathons. The boys look so cute. I also love the new header!
All I can say is under 2 hrs...not human Justin!!! That's so awesome. I got Cory to run his 1st one in March. It was my 2nd but it still felt as good as the 1st time!! You guys should come to Houston and we could all run one. Well we could start it, I don't know that I'd be able to keep up w/you! Love your cheering section too!! You guys have cute cute boys!!!
Awesome run! No way could I do that!
Way to go Justin! That is awesome! Little Jonah is not so little anymore. So cute! I can't wait to see you guys in just a few short weeks. (:
