Photos from Evening Walk

Thanks to everyone who came out for our second evening walk! It was discussed to make this a weekly event, which I think is a great idea. Any thoughts about which day is best... leave a comment here!

Thanks Beth for taking pictures!

After adding up our April and May miles, drum roll please, we have run 6,477 miles. AMAZING!

We are way more than half way there. Only 1,423 more miles to go until we've reached Kandahar, Afghanistan. Can you believe it! Keep it up and let's see how many times we can get to our loved ones and back. These Marines/Sailors are worth every mile and every ounce of sweat.
