Run, Robin, Run!

Robin ran in the St. George marathon on Oct. 2. She ran with Justin, whom she has been training with all summer long. Living in Las Vegas, training during the summer months means a lot of really early mornings of running in order to avoid the heat. Justin was a great training partner for Robin, as he is always so positive and really pushed her to the limits. For Robin, it is an especially great achievement considering that just three years ago she was in a hospital fighting for her life. Me, Robin's mom, a nephew, our kids, and Rachel and her kids all drove up while they were on the course and waited for them a little before the finish line. The anticipation of them coming around the last corner had everyone excited.

Congratulations to Robin and Justin. Way to go!
