Today was a very special day as our daughter-in-law completed the St. Jude Half Marathon with a personal best of 1:56! Samantha is our first family member to beat David’s Personal best for a half marathon at 1:59! Samantha was a St. Jude Hero today- raising money and running for the children who are struggling today to just stay alive! We are so proud of you Samantha and so proud to have you as our daughter-in-law! Way to Go!
Samantha Salmonson’s PB of 1:56 in the St. Jude Memphis Marathon!
We are so proud that running has become part of our family (Thanks to Samantha)! She now has Gavin interested and excited to run 5K’s with her. Gavin ran his first 5k when he was 5 and has since ran 2 more! He definitely is competitive like his mother and when he found out that other kids came in before him (he thought he won), he was not happy! Well in all reality, he won them all! The fact that at 5 he is running 5K’s instead of sitting and watching TV all day is a great accomplishment. We are so proud of him and look forward to seeing him run and running with him!
Gavin’s 5K’s:
Disney-Royal Family 5K
Howl at the Moon 5K
Memphis-Elvis Presley-5K
