Today marks the completion of our goal that we embarked on together starting in 2005! We have officially completed a marathon on all 7 continents together! This makes us the first couple in the World to complete a marathon on every continent together. By together we mean that we ran side by side on these marathons together, supporting each other the entire way and at the end, we crossed the finish line together holding hands! You will see this in our pictures for proof! We are very proud of this accomplishment and challenge!!!! The blogs on our journey are short and brief, please read our book when completed to hear about how we worked together setting goals, managing work/life balance especially given we both work for a technology company, supporting each other before the race and during the race, etc. The book will provide guidance on how to set unique goals as a couple not requiring a lot of money, etc. but to provide for a more powerful and loving marriage, healthy lifestyle and successful careers!

Thanks especially to Marathon Tours  and Travel for all of your support on our journey together! Thanks so much to all of our friends, family and fellow runners who supported us throughout this time!  We look forward to our continued relationships and meeting up with you all in future runs!!!
