way to go kristen!
The 2009 St. George Marathon has come and gone and I have to say it was really a great day, especially for Kristen. She had not trained as well as she could of and was worried that she wouldn't finish the race. Well not only did she finish the race, but she knocked off 23 minutes from her time last year. Her official time was 3:49:35. It was kind of funny, because we were all kind of shocked that she passed us in the stands when she did. Theresa and Carson missed it, trying to find a place to park, and by the time they got to where the finish line was, she had already crossed it. Kennedi was very emotional for two reasons - first of all Kristen had her ipod in and didn't even look our way when we were yelling and cheering her on, so she didn't see the sign Kennedi had made. Secondly, Nikki lifted the sign up shaking it, and completely blocked Kennedi's view of Kristen. Kristen spent most of the time after the race trying to make it up to Kennedi. We all - well most of us went to Applebee's to celebrate. All that running left us quite hungry:)

Way to go Kristen, we won't mention the fact of how my clothes turned orange from the sign. Well there is always next year to see her cross the finish line.
