Way to go keith!!



This past weekend was a fun one for us. Keith participated in the "Wasatch Back Ragnar" relay race. He was on a team of teachers from the School district. They called them selves "NO Teacher Left Behind" The race was from Logan to Park City. It was over 188 miles. Keith ran 3 different legs starting in Ogden at 6:30 PM, Friday, which was 3.4 miles. His second leg was through the canyon to Henefer at 3:30 AM, which was 7 miles. HIs last leg was right here in the Heber valley, running through Charlston and Midway. It was 6.1 miles and he ran this one at 2:30 PM, Saturday. By the time his team finished in Park City it was pouring rain and hail. The team finished 307 out of 436 and their finish time was 31 hours, 16 min, and 6 sec. They went all night with no sleep and just kept running. Keiths next big endeavor will be the "Top of the Mountains" marathon that goes through Logan in September. Good Job Keith!! Keep it up!!

  4. Yeah! Good Job Keith! I wish we could have seen you guys while we were up there too, but I guess that's what happens when you start 2 hours after Brennen's team! You guys will just have to say hi when you come up to the Logan marathon!
