St. George Marathon









Mom and Mariah came in town from Bellevue, and Andrew and Rachel, Kevin and Kristen all drove down to St.George to watch Jenni run the marathon along with President Pulsipher (and his 3-generation trio- him, his son and grandson!) and Connie Galeria (Jenni's faithful 6-year + running friend). It was a beautiful race day in the Fall, October 6th. They were the best fans ever! Mom even shared some tears with Jenni at the finish... that's what Mom's are for (who ever thought running could make us cry... well it did!). I am so grateful for a loving Father in Heaven who gave me the experience that I had- I will not forget that it was a miracle race... It all mounted to a finish time 3:34:55, beating my personal goal time by 5:05 and qualifying for the Boston Marathon! The knee held up better than on any training runs, and it is working great still today. His tender mercies come in all shapes and sizes. Life is painted with joy.

Kevin took some great action-photos at the end of the race... stay posted for more to come with the family and mission president.
