P.F. Chang's Rock 'n' Roll Marathon

Today Elliot ran a marathon and I ran a half marathon! It was so cool! Here are our before the race pictures. I am thinking of nothing but 1/2 marathon fame and glory.
Elliot got pretty creative with his Marathon outfit. He is wearing a bowling shirt with the sleeves ripped off and tuxedo boxers...bow tie and all! He is soooo fancy.
He got the bowling shirt at a work party and he used to wear those boxers when he was a stripper. Oh, excuse me...exotic dancer.

Here is my little cheerleader and me after the race. My race time was 2 hours 13 minutes and 39 seconds!I finished my race just in time to watch Elliot finish his marathon!
There he is running his last 100 yards! Elliot made really great time until his knee gave out at mile 18. Even though he had to painfully walk the last 8 miles he still finished the race and did it in 5 hours 5 minutes and 41 seconds! Pretty amazing! I'm so proud of him!
Moo's modeling one of the medals we got.

A big thanks to Keith and my Mom for coming to AZ to help out. They were great cheerleaders/babysitters!

This is what I should be doing! Poor little guy looks so tuckered out!

I am so sorry I missed Elliot coming across the finish line! I would have jumped in and carried him across
