Update on Joey: Rock N Roll Marathon
Submitted by David Weaver on Mon, 08/24/2009 - 7:17am
Joey finished his first half marathon this past weekend! His Dad asked him a while back to do this with him and Joey accepted the challenge. His goal was to try and run as much as possible without walking. I would say he did a pretty good job of accomplishing this goal considering he ran the whole first 12 miles! FYI: Joey did not run more than 2 miles at all before the half marathon. All he has done for training is CrossFit 3 times per week. Joey has lost over 40 lbs so far this year. He works hard and does his best to keep his nutrition in check. Next time you talk to him, send some congratulations his way!
