This weekend was Jer's first Half Marathon for about 2 1/2 years. He did a digital one just to keep moving, but this was his first in person one. We drove down to Moab Friday night. Saturday morning, Ada stayed at the hotel with Seth and Evelyn while I took Jer to his race and stayed to cheer for Sam in his. He ran the adventure 5K. Jer was excited because he loves hiking and this is a hike/run. Sam was excited to do his race. He was talking to anyone and everyone. He ran the 1k last time that Jer ran down there. He did a digital 10K last year. I was proud of him for being so positive about this fun/hard thing. Sam was befriended by a guy named Greg that was running with his wife and two teens. They kept him going when I'm sure he would have been walking on his own. Thanks Greg! After his race, I took him back to the hotel and took the kids swimming and got us checked out of the hotel in time to go pick up Jer from the end of his race.
After some lunch, we went exploring along the race route. There were some gorgeous rocks to climb.
Sam's there in the front right of the pack.
Fall in the desert is spectacular!
Yeah, I look fantastic. Jer packed my clothes for me because I was daycaring.... so I tucked my dress into a pair of shorts for exploring. It was nice to wear the dress on the drive home. Nice and roomy.
This tree reminds me of the Tree of Life or something.
My favorite Jer selfie
Ada's way down there... Like a where's Waldo
