This weekend, Daniel participated in the Salt Lake 1/2 Marathon. 13.1 crazy long miles! I cannot imagine running that far. I was so proud of him! He has been training for months, and this is the longest distance he has ever run. Makai and I went down to Gateway to see him finish the race.
Daniel's sister Heather, sister-in law Janette, and his Uncle Will also ran the 1/2 marathon. His dad, Doug, his brother Matt, and his Aunt Melanie did the bike tour. Rash did the 5K. And his brother Chris went the full distance! He finished his first marathon--All 26.2 miles.
Those Anderson's are pretty crazy, but pretty motivated. They all worked so hard to train, and everyone did so well. It was so fun to see everyone and cheer them on. There were so many people at Gateway!
It was pretty inspiring to see so many dedicated people running their hearts out. Who knows? I might consider doing a 1/2 marathon someday. Anyone who knows
me knows that is a joke. I hate running more than anything. But seriously, I might consider walking the 13 miles.

Lyndsie,
This blogging thing is so fun. I totally had flash backs of COLT NEWS when I saw your comment on my blog. What fun times. You and your family are so darling. I am adding you to my list of blogs so I can check up with you more often!

Good job Dan! I wish I was a good runner like you. What an athletic family. I think I will sit on the sidelines and cheer with Lyndsie.
Way to go Daniel! I am very impressed.
