Salt Lake Marathon

Today was the Salt Lake Marathon. Mark's sister, Anna, signed up to run it and Mark decided to run it with her. About two days after signing up, Mark remembered that his Achilles tendon had been bothering him and he was supposed to lay off running. He stayed off it for a few weeks, but apparently that wasn't long enough. Oh well. We ended up giving Mark's place to Marie, a friend of ours. However, once we realized that the race passed right in front of Mark's cousin's house, we decided to go down and cheer on Anna and Marie. Their house was just past the 23 mile mark, so all the runners were very strung out by the time they passed us. But we had fun chatting with Matt and Kate and their neighbors, and the kids had fun playing with Olivia.
