On Sunday we woke up early and headed out to the boulder reservoir to cheer jessica on as she ran her first half marathon in the Boulder Backroads Race.

I made a sign

Mark and Elsie watched for Jess

here’s a quick glance as she runs by (she is in blue – wondering where Yancey and her girls are)

Turned out they were at a different cheer point, but we all met at the finish line where jess got her medal. She finished the race in 01:46:50 (pacing at an 8 minute mile). Mark swears he will run it next year – and I will be in the same place holding a sign!

Well done Jess!!
