Another race

Today Jesse ran the earth day half marathon. This is the first race the kids have been able to watch him (I was a little bummed today, I didn't run, but I did get to watch how much fun the kids had watching him race) He came in at 1:28:30, his goal was 1:30:00 for 13 miles!! That put him in 33rd place out of 1287 runners, so that was awesome. He is right on track for qualifying for Boston (he has to run 26.2 miles in under 3:05:00). Many have asked him if he is still considering Boston after the events from the last week and his response is of course!! It is a dream of his and he is not going to let 2 selfish people ruin that for him. He officially retired his first pair of running shoes today (since he started running in November). He has two brand new pair waiting for him :) Grandmas marathon is only a little over 8 weeks away!! Go Jesse!!!
