Dallas Whiterock Marathon December 15, 2002 |
|
We went with Mom and some of her friends when
they ran the Dallas Whiterock Marathon. Desirae and I were supposed to
be the "Pit Crew", but we weren't that great at it. We were glad to be
there nonetheless.
Mom did fantastic - 4th in her age group in a race of over 8,000 people!
At 4:02:26, she also qualified for Boston. Guess where she'll be on
April 21?! |

And here comes Jon |
Here's a picture of the old courthouse in downtown Dallas. We passed it on our epic search for breakfast. |
Here we are, still looking for breakfast | This is about all we saw of Mom at the half-way point! |

|
Here's Jon, doing good at the half-way point. |
|
We thought this long line of bikes was really cool... | until Desirae got caught on one side of it when we were in a hurry! |
Here's Tammy coming up to the finish | Here we are, doing what we did so much of - watching for Mom and her gang to come in. |

Here's Mom coming up to the finish. Looks like she's just been out for a quick jog, doesn't it?! |
|
Here she is accepting her 4th place medal. Way to go Mom!! |
