On Saturday Aaron ran his 2nd marathon of 26.2 miles in Nashville, Tennessee. He and Bill Cundiff, a man from church, have been training together for many months for the big day on Saturday! I wasn't able to go to cheer him on, but he did great without that. Here are the results from the Country Music Marathon page:

Here are the few pictures he took of the weekend:
I think they had a hard time finding parking for the Expo on Friday afternoon. Bill looks excited to have finally found a spot. Aaron respects this man a lot. He is a great example of a faithful follower of Christ and a loving husband. And he can run really fast!
It was raining early in the morning but stopped once the race began. There marathoners and the half marathoners started together...there were about 25,000 runners altogether!
He said it wouldn't be his last one, and he's already talked to some guys about the next one to race. Anyone interested? Not me!
