On June 12th Rick will be running the Utah Valley marathon. In preperation he has been hitting the pavement most mornings running between 5 and 20 miles. He has been killing himself running up hills that feel more like moutains and pushing harder and harder to beat the clock. He has done amazingly well. Well he decided to do a little practice race and run the Thanksgiving point 1/2 marathon. The kids and I went up there to watch him come in. He did great he came strong beating his goal time by several minutes. It was exciting to watch him and be there with the excitment of the crowd cheering on their runners.
They gave each runner and their family a day pass to Thansgiving point so even though I am sure Rick would have rather crawled in his bed we spent the rest of the day digging for dinosaur bones, riding ponies and strolling through tulip gardens. It was a really nice day. Thanksgiving point is a beautiful place with tons of things to do and see.
