mini-marathon

The Bismarck Kroll's Marathon was this weekend.  On Friday night, there was a kids' mini-marathon at the capital.  There was a 50 yd days for the really little kids, and 200 yd dash for the somewhat little kids, a 1/2 mile run for the regular sized kids, and a mile run for anyone who wanted to participate.  Megan was in the somewhat little kid category, so she did the 200 yd dash.  I was not able to action pics as it was utter chaos.  The boys did the mile.  Jonathan ended up just doing a 1/2 mile, as he was having some asthma troubles.  Eric finished the whole thing.  Megan's BFF was also there, so they did the 200 yd dash together.


 Lt Governor Drew Wrigley and his wife, Kathleen.  Kathleen suffered an aneurysm ~3 1/2 years ago.  I watched her finish the Fargo Marathon less than a year later, with guide runners on each side of her due to vision loss from the bleed.  She was bawling.  Made me tear up, too!
 They did it!
The only pic I got of the boys running.   All 3 kids refused a post race pic.
