Zephanie and I set off around 8 AM this morning and walked for 17 miles to Clinton, in 6 hours.
We only had to walk 1 1/2 miles on the freeway, and the rest of it we walked on frontage road. We passed a ton of runners, and learned that the Missoula marathon was going the same day.
At one point we both had to use the bathroom, so I mentioned the fire station, and we stopped to ring the bell. Of course they let us in and I talked the guys for a while and learned that one of them knows a child in the BOC program, so I am going to stop by in the morning and give him one of my shoes to give to the kid he knows. Other than that, we hardly stopped at all. If we hadn't stopped to talk the firemen, we could have finished in closer to 5 1/2 hours.
Zephanie kept me moving. Usually I stop to take pictures, or stop to snack or whatever, but she keep on moving! It was great because we were done by 2. I'm hoping to do the same tomorrow, since bad weather is suppose to move in in the afternoon, with a lot of rain, hail and lighting... We'll see what happens... When we got home, we ordered a pizza and chilled out for the night.
