Portland {Marathon}


Our good friend Eric... running the 26 mile marathon in Portland. He is here in the black headed towards the camera.

Waiting in the rain

Josh was originally going to run this with Eric, he trained until about 16 miles... then his body started to fall apart and he began having some health issues.. Eric continued with the training and so on October 5th, Josh got up early with Eric and drove down with him to cheer him on from the sidelines... running from mile marker to marker encouraging Eric in the rain. We got there towards the end of the race and lined the crowded streets to see Eric cross the finish line. We were SO proud of him and this major accomplishment. It was so cute as he was almost to the end he saw Delaney (his daughter) ran over and planted a kiss on her cheek... of course my camera died and I was unable to get the shot. Oh well. Until next year... that is if he or Josh runs it again...
