The Robie Creek Half Marathon has come and gone. The race called "the toughest half marathon in the northwest" took place Saturday afternoon. Jeff ran with his brother in law Chad and friend Joey. They all did very well this year. Jeff shaved about 10-12 mins of his time from last year and came in just over 2 hours. They all survived the run without any seriouse injury (with the exception of Jeff's second toe...see photo below). All of us wives were able to ride up to the finish line together to greet our husbands and enjoy some of the after race festivities. It was really nice because Jeff's parents came up and watch the kidlets so we didnt have to drag them up into the mountains. Here are a couple of pictures from the race....
Jeff, Joey, and Chad right after they finished the race
Look at all the people...there were around 2600 runners in the even plus and as you can see
lots of others that came for support or to help out for the after race festivities.
Jeff's nasty toe...I wonder if the nail will fall off...he had the same issue last year
Enjoying each other's company and the free food after the race!

Amazing accomplishment for them. Congratulatioans to Jeff, Chad & Joey. It looks like you had great weather for it. No rain? Are you going to enter next year?
That's awesome. Way to go, Jeff! I wish we could have been there to see him race. I LOVED watching Talon race. Those are really fun events to go to, even if you aren't running in them, because it's neat to cheer from the sidelines!
