Team Karrie (narrated by Blakey)

I am team Karrie's biggest fan! This September my favorite Auntie ran a half marathon. Crazy, I know, but she did it and I of course I was there (#1 fan), to cheer her on.
Aunt Karrie is looking good here at mile 7 or so. (No one was really sure which mile this was?!) The racers ran through downtown Bothell, right by grandma's house.
I caught up again to Karrie at mile 11 (that's what that sign in the pictures says). She was definitely looking a bit more tired of all that running at this point. I told her to take a quick drink and then keep going! I knew she could finish those last couple miles strong. If my mom would have been more prepared she would have brought a jogging stroller for me and threw on her running shoes so we could have run those last couple miles with Karrie.
(Silly mom for forgetting) I wasn't the only Team Karrie fan there that day to cheer her on.
She's got quite a following!
There she is--finishing strong.
This is right before the last corner to the finish line.
Still looking good after a little over 13 miles of running.
I (Blake) was totally impressed with how well she did.
I never doubted she could finish the race.
I'll always be Team Karrie's biggest fan!
Auntie Karrie and I go way back . . .
