OPERATION OKC MARATHON COMPLETE!!!!

Operation Oklahoma City Marathon...Complete! Aimee, Julie, Ashley, and Shay and I all ran the Oklahoma City Marathon on Sunday April 27th. What an awesome city and what a great marathon (much better than Chicago last Fall) Although the weather called for T-Storms and wind, we were not going to let that get us down. Showers and wind definitely were present at the 6:30am start, but then the rain stopped about 10 minutes after the race started (thank you God!), the weather was overcast and upper 40's-50's for most of the run and around 25 mph wind gusts. Although not ideal the sun eventually came out for the last 6 miles of the run (this was welcomed as the last 6 of the 26 miles are the hardest. So glad its over....but I will definitely do it again...CALL ME CRAZY!!!
We all made it and got our Medals...SO SWEET!The car decor was a must..to get us in the right mind set


The OKC Memorial..what an awesome remembrance of the victims that lost their lives.........
