Here are some pictures from the big race. They all did great! Ryan and Jon finished together in 5 hours and 19 minutes, which is great for Ryan's 1st marathon and for Jon, considering he had run 13.1 miles just 24 hours before. Ryan felt great until mile 21, where he cramped up in his quad. He compensated for his quad cramping and ended up hurting his hamstring a little. Other than the soreness, he felt great during the rest of the trip. Casey has his personal best, finishing in 4 hours and 45 minutes, which is an hour off his time from last year.
After the race, Ryan and Jon enjoyed a little R&R at the condo, while we all ventured out to Epcot. From then on though, Ryan did everything Kate and I did, even carrying Kate on his shoulders for most of the trip.
A huge congratulations goes out to all 3 of the guys. It was so inspiring to be there and watch thousands of people push their bodies beyond what they ever felt possible. It definitely reenergized me to run again, after the pregnancy of course!
