I am so, so proud of my soon-to-be husband this morning! He, along with some of our friends who were in town visiting, ran the Athens Half Marathon on Sunday morning. He signed up over the summer indicating that he could run it in under 2 hours and 30 minutes. After training for a few months, he set a personal goal of running it in under 2 hours. Well.....
My future mister ran 13.1 miles and beat his goal by over TEN minutes!!
1:46:25 - 259th out of 1791, 29th out of 123 in the men's 25-29 age division
He deserved it, as did the rest of our friends who ran! Here are some more pictures of our weekend:
Saturday night I cooked everyone a spaghetti dinner - the boys were watching the UGA/UK game

at the halfway point I started jumping up and down and causing a big racket
look at all those runners!

Patrick at the finish - unfortunately this guy stepped right into my shot

Did you and/or your fiance set any personal goals prior to the wedding?
Good for him! We both set a goal to get fit and healthy before the wedding. It took a lot of hard work, but we did it!
