I wondered if you were doing the iron man with your comments about riding the roads on the 50k course. WOW, that is uber impressive! You will do great!

Burt, I will win it for you!!!! Kelli, I signed up for St George IM last May and I have been training hard for a whole year. Cathy is participating in IM too. She has gotten so strong... She is an ironman!!!

I knew you were signed up, I just did not realize this was THE IronMan. for some reason I thought it was in September. I am SLOW!!!
Good luck to both of you, I can not wait to hear about it.
And I have no doubt that your wife is IronWoman----i have always thought that!
When we come to the marathon this year we really do have to meet!! Are either of you going to run it?
From Kelli on Fri, Apr 29, 2011 at 17:31:07 from 71.219.96.115
Never mind, I see it is on your list for the year. SO, we will SEE you there this time!
I have been waiting years to meet your fabulous wife, my hero!

You can actually see her on the StGeorge Marathon promo video. She's the hot lady doing all the running on it!!

Where is this video???

Then click the youtube video

Is that her talking in the video or just the running? She is beautiful. I still can not believe that skinny little woman gave birth to 8 kids. She is phenomenal!
That video was great, it actually got me excited to run again and I have been lacking some serious motivation----I am so tired!
So, I am off to finally run today!

She is amazing!!! All of you super-women are amazing!!! Cathy is speaking in all over that video. I like her last quote at the end of the video "Here we go again!"
From Kelli on Tue, May 03, 2011 at 13:34:12 from 71.219.96.115
I loved everything she said in the video! It was a really GREAT video, I was inspired to actually enjoy running for a day!
OK, this year during the St George Marathon we have got to go to dinner. We will be getting there Thursday late afternoon and leaving Sunday afternoon. Make some time for us if you can!!!
GOOD LUCK to both of you this weekend. I am so exited to hear about it. You two machines are READY.
From ben on Tue, May 03, 2011 at 14:15:44 from 209.33.248.15
We will definitely meet for dinner!! Also, in our local newspaper tomorrow, cathy and I are spotlighted for an IM article about couples doing the IM together that have children. And since we have 8 kids, they wanted our story. Also, we are highlighted in the IM promo video for ST George IM.

I cant sign, but you can read it on www.thespectrum.com and if they are trying to charge for it, i always go to their facebook page and read the paper for free.
From Kelli on Tue, May 03, 2011 at 22:22:30 from 71.219.96.115
SO, everyone will KNOW you guys are awesome! Seriously, training for an marathon, let alone an Iron Man, when you have 8 kids at home to take care of? Very inspiring! So, this is in Wednesday's paper? What about the spotlight video for the IM? Where can we see that? I saw some stuff on the TV when we were in St George, but I was not really paying attention to what it was---there were kids running and screaming in every direction! All I said was, "WOW! Those athletes are incredible!"
From ben on Wed, May 04, 2011 at 11:18:38 from 209.33.248.15
I think todays paper has our article? I should go find a paper. I didn't see anything on-line. The IM promo was wrapping up filming yesterday and they plan to do post race filming too.
From Kelli on Wed, May 04, 2011 at 13:40:49 from 71.219.96.115
I could not find anything online either. BUMMER, if you find it, let me know. I looked in outdoors and sports and did an "ironman" search, but NADA.
