Well after months & months of training, lots of hard work, sweat and probably a few tears (more on my part than his) and completed his first 1/2 Marathon. The kids and I could not have been more proud. It was a cold & rainy day and was not what Andy envisioned for his first big race. But after a lot of planning and taking into accout all the factors at hand, Andy headed out weather proofed as he could be to the starting line.
Terez came and sat with Luke and the big kids and I hit the race course (warm & dry in our minivan) and followed Andy along the course stopping ahead of him, staking our spot and cheering him on! The kids were great little cheer leaders and got very excited to received a high five & kiss from a very soggy Daddy.
More cheers were to come when he got home and showed off the medal.. and now the running bug is firmly implanted and the planning has begun for the next racing season... Go Andy go!
