South Weber 5k

Today, Marty ran his FIRST official 5k in South Weber! He has been "training" for a couple months at the Clearfield High track. Our neighbor, Mike, has been so helpful and has spent many Saturdays running with him and helping him build up his speed and endurance. Like most of us that DO NOT run (that would be me) he started off being able to run a 1/2 mile without stopping. Now, he can run the full 5k (3.1 miles) without stopping. I am so proud of him. He beat his goal today by 26 seconds! GREAT JOB honey!
Mitch (Marty's brother), Ethan, Nyah, and I waited at the finish line for Marty.
Go Daddy Go!
You can do it Daddy!

Everyone cheered Marty on through the finish line!
The glory of accomplishing a goal!
