We had our first annual Holman brothers 1 mile fun run today at the Orem Junior High track. This all started with Matt challenging the Holman brothers to a mile race, and since Matt wasn't here we just timed them and figured we could compare times. So Matt we are gonna need a mile from you pretty soon, hope you're ready! The whole family came out to watch Josh and Logan run even Mao who kept wanting to run with Josh when ever he ran by but got as far as the leash would go and had to stop, it was pretty cute. They both finished the race Josh with a time of 10:06 and Logan with 10:49. They prepared for the race for about ten minutes before it started but had lots of cheering to get them through it. And it must have been pretty tough because they laid in my living room for about an hour afterwards trying not to laugh because whenever they did they would just start weezing and have to drink some water. We have decided to make this a yearly thing so any family member who wants to participate next year better start preparing now! So hope you enjoy the pictures and we hope to see you there next year!

  1. Classic. Man, the expensive airfare, inevitable jet lag, and abandonment of an 8 1/2 month pregnant wife would have been totally worth it if I had known you guys were going to go through with the run. I will definitely be there next year. I'll get timed tomorrow at the track on base.
