On Saturday I had the opportunity to go and support Scott's brother Rodney as he participated in the Hickory half Marathon that supports a variety of different charities in the area. I told him since no one else was able to go that I would be as loud as I could so he could feel my love and support for the whole family.
I started by making a sign with Nora (my sister) helping me come up with something to say.
Rodney did great! 13.1 miles in under 2 hours and finished strong with a sprint to the end! I could not be more proud of him. Out of over 500 participants I believe he finished 132. Good Job Rodney - Looking forward to your next one!

Waking up before the sun, I got ready and headed to Down Town Hickory. The race started at 6:30 am so the runners wouldn't have to have the sun beating down on them. With a little pre-run pep talk I wished Rodney all the luck in the world and set off to find a place to cheer him on.
The course was somewhat of a figure 8 around town starting and ending at the same place. That made it convenient for me as I could pretty much stay in a 2 block radius and be able to cheer (very loudly for that matter!) him on as he started, half way through and of course as he crossed the finish line.
