Brandon Thomas Rust ran an awesome race!
I got up multiple times during the night because I was so scared I was going to miss out on watching him race. I was tracking his mile times and placement online. At the half my brother was running solid 6:40 miles and went through the 13.1 mile mark at 1:28. AMAZING.
I called my Dad and said - Brandon is running awesome, get to the finish. So my dad ran. He got to the plaza where is got a picture of Brandon.
I was screaming in our condo and so excited for Brandon. He was staying strong, and finished the marathon in 3:09. BOSTON marathon qualifying time is 3:10.
So if he wants to run in the best marathon on the planet we are all headed to BOSTON!!
(No pressure)
My Baby Brother is a GREAT runner! My Mom is smiling. She is proud. So am I.
