Marathon Man

Today Charlie ran in the Houston Marathon, doing the half marathon. The weather was absolutely beautiful today, about 60 degrees at race start and then sunny and a slight breeze for the duration of the race. He came in at a whopping 1:44:48 hr chip time for 13.1 miles for a pace of 7.94 minutes/mile. He finished in place 617/8434 Total (top 7%), and 63/465 (top 13.5%) in his division (Male 30-34). Craziness! I'm so proud of him, he did an outstanding job!

Kudos also to my friends: Erin, Tarik, Todd, Carla, Kimmie (all in the half), and Nujoud (her first full marathon!) for finishing strong!! I'm proud of all of you - what an accomplishment!!

Get ready for next year!
