The Come-back Kids

Today was the Country Music Marathon/Half-Marathon, and these two gentlemen ran the Half in very admirable times.  This is pretty cool in itself, but what's really cool is that these two spent a good portion of the past several months dealing with surgeries, therapies and treatments, but God has blessed them with good recoveries.  Really good, I'd say, if they ran 13.1 miles!  Way to go, guys!  And by the way, they weren't running only for themselves, but as a part of the King's Meadow Endurance Team who is raising funds for New College Franklin.  You can check it out at kingsmeadow.com/endurance.
                   John comes in with after a strong finish.

               George is obviously pleased with his run.

They match! I assume this was planned?

Yes, it was planned. The shirts were for the King's Meadow Endurance Team. It was also helpful to know how to find Dad in the crowd!
