Maxine and the St. George Half Marathon

Maxine's half marathon!

I think drone shows are going to be the fireworks of the future. I think they're cool and reusable and nothing catches on fire!

How cool is this sunrise?

Maxine's hip was freaking out at mile 9 and it wouldn't let her stop running. We found her at mile 10 and cheered her on.

At this point, she said she was fighting for her life!

She's almost there!

Her finish time was 2:48:14, setting her pace at 12:50. Dang, that's so hard! I can only sprint. Such a long time to be running! That's amazing to me and I'm proud of her! Can you imagine that she wasn't even that sore for the rest of the week? She didn't grumble going up and down stairs or anything! 

As a fun side note, we bumped into my friend Angie Maynes from college. She's the one that set me up on a blind date with Merril! She's the one who's responsible for setting in motion the path of so much goodness in my life. I will forever be grateful!
