Four Bridges Half Marathon

About 2 monthe ago, Jp began training for Four Bridges Half Marathon race. Today he ran the 13 mile course that circled Lake Natoma in Folsom. It was a beautiful morning and he ran at a good steady pace. He finished just over 2 hours and said that he had a great time doing it. What an awsome accomplishment!! Below are some pictures of the big event.
