Shun the Sun 2010

Chuck has been wanting to participate in a half marathon for a long time, so when this event came up Nichelle made sure to let Chuck in on the info. So, Chuck entered the half marathon, Nichelle (my sister) did the 5k and Kathryn (my cousin) also did the 5k!
Nichelle, Chuck and Kathryn
Waiting for the start gun! His reflectors are glowing!!!

The kids played in the Gamer's Arcade (it had 4 Big Screen TV's and 4 gaming systems set up!) It kept us warm in the beginning!
Here's Nichelle!!!

There she goes!



Here comes Kathryn!!!

There she goes!!!

Kathryn and Nichelle after the finished. They finish one right after the other in 32 minutes!!! Way to go girls!!! I'm proud of your accomplishment!


Girls got their faces painted...
... and ate cotton candy!
... and got balloon animals and hats!
Here is my love!!! What a trooper!
Macee and Maddy joined him in this last little stretch!

The finish line!!! He did it in about 2 hours 25 minutes (official times not published yet). I'm so proud of this accomplishment! He is such a strong man!
