Nestof3 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 He just turned 18. He ranked #31 out of 1,129 runners. He ranked #27 out of male runners. His chip time was 1:29:51 He began training in late January. We are so proud of him! Shameless brag post. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alenee Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 That's AWESOME! *patting your son on the back* I'm doing a 1/2 in October...my first time. I am scheduled to walk it but I'm thinking I may try to run it. We'll see...I'm inspired! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colleen Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 I'll just pretend I didn't read this.:D Don't want to think about people who can start train a few months and then do a half marathon as their first race. It's bad enough to have my own boys beat me to the finish line.:tongue_smilie: Seriously, that is an awesome accomplishment. Very cool!!!

Nestof3 Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 Thanks. This all started when he told my brother (who is an ultra-marathoner) he'd like to pace him in his nest 100 mile race in May. He'll be running the last 25 miles with him. This conversation took place in January, so my brother made him a schedule which he has followed religiously.
