2009 SLC 1/2 Marathon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My #1 fan and President of the Lane Marley Fan Club!

This is my friend Clay Smith he also ran the 1/2 marathon.


I did it! I finished the Salt Lake City Half Marathon! I beat my old time by 5 minutes for a time of 2:05:19! The weather was perfect, the race started at 7:00 AM with a temperature of about 45 degrees there were 4125 participants I ended up 1797th place. The course was pretty flat and fast with plenty of room on the road for all participants. The race started at the Olympic bridge over by the University of Utah and ended at the Gateway mall. It was a great feeling to run around the corner and see the finish line 200 yards ahead of me, this gave me a feeling of accomplishment to see tons of people there to cheer me on! At the end of the race it took me nearly 20 minutes to find Serena or should I say it took her 20 minutes to find me! This was a great opportunity to get ready for the Pocatello full Marathon! I have a lot of work to do before September 5th!

The Finish Line!

Spring has sprung!!!!!

With the arrival of spring comes yard work. Lane has been dying to get his hands dirty since November. We have a portion of our yard that needs landscaping. We sure have our work cut out for us.
The boys love all the dirt that they get to play with.

Lane tilling the yard.
Is there something on my tongue?
We had a beautiful spring day and had to take advantage of it. Here is Laney with is buddy Conner.
