13.1 IN 1:58:53

The goal? To run a 1/2 marathon in under 2 hours. The bib number? 2262. The weather? Better than it was last week. In fact, it was so bad last week that the Olathe Marathon was postponed till this weekend. Despite some high winds, it was certainly better than running in last week's snow and freezing rain. Having set his sites on the 13.1 mile run, Cody started training in January and accomplished his goal ... and with a time of 1:58:53. Not bad considering the hip injury he sustained a couple of weeks ago. Good thing Paige knew of a local chiropractor. Next up? The KC Marathon in the fall.

Congrats Cody! It's been cool to see you train for and reach this goal. You made it about 13 miles further than I would have!
