On Sunday, January 18, 2009, David Hollon and his friend, Jonathan Lusk, ran the Houston Marathon (26.2 miles). Steve, Melissa, Jim Hollon and I traveled the route taking the guys sustanance (gatorade, energy goo, salt tablets and other snacks) to help keep them hydrated and energized for the race. We were at mile 7, mile 14, mile 22 and at the finish to cheer them on. David achieved his goal and ran 3 hrs 36 minutes in only his second marathon. Great job! It was a beautiful day and it was inspirational to see some of the 20,000 people who participated in the marathon and half-marathon. Congratulations David on achieving your goal.
Lydia and I cheered for David early on in the race! So proud of him.
