Paige, DC, and the National Marathon!
My sister Paige flew to Columbus for a visit - we enjoyed a St. Patrick's Day parade in Dublin!

Paige drove with us to DC. We stayed with the McArthurs and Kai taught Cadie some moves.

I'll end with the worst family photo ever:

I guess this picture says more than I can - we were all pretty beat at this point but the race went well and Cadie eventually got a nap. :)
Eric ran marathon #2 and I ran the half. I beat my time goal by 35 seconds (finished in 2:24:25) and felt great the entire time. I think we are both finished with long races for a little while. We need to work on our speed so that we don't have to be out on the course as long.

You get a break on bad picture if you just ran a marathon. Way to go!

I love the last picture. It looks exactly how people should look after running, and Cadie looks like she will not be patient for another second. It's a framer :). I have my half in a month.. and then we will see if I will have more races in the future or not :)

Yay KIM and KARA! Good luck with your races, you'll do great. I love race day - there is so much energy and excitement.
Cami- Thanks for the quick response! The cake was great as usual. I need to start paying you for the "CALL CAMI" hotline.
