This weekend was the Little Rock Marathon and half marathon. About a year ago, Larry got a great idea to start a running group at our church modeled after the USA Fit program we were a part of in Houston. The group started running together in August on Saturday mornings with the focus on getting everyone ready to compete in the Little Rock marathon or half marathon. For most, this was their first race of this distance. It has been so fun watching everyone develop as runners and enjoy the sport that Larry and I have loved for over 10 years. Well, this past Sunday 34 runners from the group competed and finished their respective races!!!! The weather was perfect and it was just a total delight to hear everyones stories and see the sense of accomplishment on their faces!!! I hope they all enjoyed our Saturday mornings together as well as the race and will consider doing it again next year!
