Just a couple of people out for a run…

Proof that Mankato had a hit on their hands. Over 2000 runners participated in the inaugural Mankato Marathon on Saturday. After the main pack had finished going by on the main route by our house, I took the boys back to the house. By then the 10k runners were running literally in front of our house. The boy spent 20+ minutes cheering on the 10k runners.
Can’t wait for next year. Maybe Holly will be on the sides cheering me on?
Good luck Holly…
Posted by: | CommentsToday is the inaugural Mankato Marathon. I want to wish good luck to everyone running in the race – Cindy, Tanya, and Kristin. Especially to Holly, who we’re going to cheer for extra loud.
Pics from the race to follow.
Very happy results…
Posted by: | CommentsTonight was the 2011 Mankato Photo Contest presentation by the Mankato City Council. I was honored to have two of my pictures awarded tonight. The first was a night shot of Veteran’s Memorial Bridge to be named the 2nd place photo out of over 375 entries. This picture was blown up and already framed at the ceremony tonight. It will now be hung within City government offices and on official literature.
The other was being named the 2nd overall photo in the People’s Choice award for my picture of Union Depot in downtown Mankato.
Both of my pictures lost to the same picture, a great aerial photo of Mankato in the winter. Here’s to trying to get up one more spot next year!
