half marathon 2009

The Goellner's visited us this weekend so Geoff and I could participate in the Gary Bjorklund Half Marathon. The temperature was excruciatingly hot but at least the race started early and we weren't running the full marathon. We both finished near our goals and enjoyed the post-race festivities with the Myers brothers. I also enjoyed the first plunge of the season into mighty Lake Superior - always refreshing to say the least.

Our support crew awaits our arrival while munching on scones from Great Harvest.



Tony passes by at approximately the 10.5 mile mark.
