More Running!

The Dallas Whiterock Marathon

Sunday, Zach, Nana and Kara ran the half marathon at Whiterock. It was a good day for running! Perfect race conditions. Zach had made a pace goal of 8:00 miles and shattered that goal with his 1:42 finish (7:45/miles!). Nana and Kara both beat their previous half marathon times; Nana with a 2:25 and Kara right behind her with a 2:27. Nice job guys! Way to represent the Parker family!

22,000 racers ready to run. So cool!

entertainment for the spectators!

around mile 4 1/2...look at that group of athletes!

We got to the 4 1/2 mile point in time to see Nana but we missed Kara and Zach

Zach's finish

Kara is coming in with this group of hundreds (orange hat, black shirt)

this is what it looked like just after you crossed the finish line. you had to wade through the sea of people to get your medal, t-shirt and refreshments
