Marathon Man

Jason ran in the Arizona Rock n' Roll FULL marathon this year. 26.2 miles seems crazy to some, but to runners is an exciting challenge. What a sense of accomplishment when it's over. Jason trained and trained long & hard for this run; running 30-40 miles a week for 16 weeks. A lot more goes into a marathon than just race day. Gavin and Barb are SO SO SO proud of him. This is his third marathon and he had his best time ever! He completed this marathon in 3 hours and 57 minutes, beating his last time by over 40 minutes!!
Still going strong at mile 25.5, a smile and everything!!


The quote was "I'm saying it now, I don't need to do another marathon for a long time!" He didn't say ever, but it will be a while before another 26.2

Our running friend and race partner David Link is the one that talked Jason into the full marathon. David had a personal best at this race as well. Both the guys did a great job!
