Jon is going to run the Houston Marathon in 2009. ...You can start laughing now.
Yeah, he claims he's tired of being out of breath after climbing a flight of stairs, wearing pants that cut off circulation because they keep shrinking day after day, and wishing his belly would stop flowing over his waistband and bulging his shirt out. Also, Karen ran it successfully last year and plans to do it again this year. Thanks Karen for the inspiration!
So what does this have to do with the 4th of July? Jon, Matt, Karen, Glen (Karen's brother), and Julia (Karen's friend) left the house at 5:15am to run in the Freedom 5k in Sugarland. This was Jon's first race ever (since the horror of winning a pink ribbon at a 2nd grade track meet).
Jon didn't win the race. In fact, every person in his group finished at least a minute before him. Matt beat him by 6 minutes. The race results helped convince Jon to join a running club, Katy Fit, to help motivate him.
