Run Charlie Run

He did it!! Last weekend Charlie ran the Austin Marathon. He has been training for 5 months. Charlie was running with his friend and co-worker Chris Pacina. Charlie's goal was to finish under 5 hours and would liked to finish under 4 hours and 30 minutes. He ended up finishing in 4 hours and 23 minutes, woohoo! It was a good run for him, he felt good and did not have any problems, praise Jesus! It was exciting to cheer them on! I wish I had a picture of their supporters. My mom, dad, Bekah, Kaylee, Jennifer, and Andy came to support Charlie. Thanks for coming! Thanks to Jennifer and Andy for the yummy spaghetti dinner. I am so proud! Check out the pictures...
