It was cold when the race started, but when they saw us they had been walking for 2 hours already, so they shed their jackets and were looking awesome. Mom proudly told us that they were about 10 minutes ahead of their goal time, which was incredible. And off they went...
John and I then hopped into our car, drove to get some hot chocolate (it was COLD out), then we made our way to the finish line. Holy Moly there were a lot of people. We wanted to see mom and dad cross the finish line, however a large chain-link fence was in front of us. Luckily we wormed our way up front and got some decent pictures of them crossing. They were so proud of themselves...as well they should be!
Dad told me at the end that he had always wanted to wear one of the tin foil wraps, and he finally got to!
WAY TO GO MOM AND DAD!
