My husband....a Twin Cities Marathon FINISHER!

Ryan before he even got the starting line....it took about 10 minutes after the race started before he finally was up to the start line!
Here he comes...at mile 15! I was also at mile 9, but it was pouring out, so didn't take my camera with me then. We were lucky at mile 9 to get under a bridge, so we were able to stay pretty dry.
Megan Frank joined him at mile 15 and ran with him until mile 20! Here they are at mile 20.
At mile 20, Aaron Frank jumped in to help encourage Ryan.....Meg and Aaron thanks so much for all you did! Ryan is soooo thankful for friends like you!
Here's Ryan at the finish line! We are all so proud of Ryan and what he has accomplished!

WOOHOOO!!! Congratulations Ryan! We feel so blessed to have been there to experience your first marathon. All those months of pounding the pavement paid off- you did it! It was such a gift to run at your side- thank you! I had a hard time holding back tears just thinking of how many miles you ran in preparation and how many people were there cheering you on. Ok.... I promised myself I wouldn't cry. :) Way to go Jennissen Fam- a marathon is a family affair- congrats! We love you so much!
