Rocking Seattle

Kim Blackwelder is back from Seattle, and now has notched a second marathon in her running belt. Some leg ailments had prevented Kim from following her planned training schedule, so she knew this race was going to be a challenge. That being said, Kim has taken on bigger obstacles in her life, so I had no doubts that she would push through. Her overall finishing time was 5:58:41. Great job Kim!

Kim has now completed Disney and the Seattle Rock 'n' Roll Marathon. Next on her race calendar is the Medoc Trail Marathon. We do not have Mickey Mouse, and bands on the course, but Medoc says he can't wait to eat her. . . err. . . I mean meet her!
