We spent this past Saturday night in Jacksonville to do a little Christmas celebrating with the family and to celebrate the engagement of my brother, Carter and his fiance, Leigh. And Robert decided that this would be a good time to squeeze in a 13.5 mile run that he has been itching to do for some time now. We woke up REALLY early on Sunday morning to get there and he was off by 7:00. Robert ran with his friend, Cary who is no stranger to these kinds of events and Robert finished with an outstanding time - he ran each mile at minute faster than his usual pace! That's impressive. You won't see me running in any of these events. Why? Because I would like to be able to use my legs someday in the future for things like walking or pushing my swivel chair from one side of the room to the next. But that's another set of issues and since Robert does not seem bothered, I applaud him. Great job, Robert! You worked hard for this.
