This was right after he crossed the finish line.

A Journey of 40,000 steps completed
Jeff had a huge accomplishment last weekend. Despite the wind, rain and cold, he ran and completed the St. George Marathon. His knee that had been giving him problems worked great and his body is back to his normal non-stiff self. Isn't asking someone if they'd like to do another marathon right after they finish, a little bit like asking a woman who just gave birth if she's ready to have another one? Well, Jeff was unsure about wanting to do another marathon for only a couple days, and now he's looking to do some more in the near future. Ian has the itch to run the 1/2 marathon in Wyoming next July and has started his training, who knows maybe we'll all be a marathon running family someday. Way to go Jeff...I'm so proud of you!
I'll post more pictures soon. It wasn't able to get any other pictures, but we will be purchasing some of the pictures that they took while he was out on the course and crossing the finish line!

That is so awesome! Congrats Jeff. I can't even imagine how great it must have felt to cross the finish line. Way to go!
That is something to be proud of. What an accomplishment! Congratulations Jeff.
So cool that you have inspired Ian. How awesome if 2 or even 3 of you could do the Lander 1/2 together.
So so cool! We're so proud of you Jeff!!! I'll definitely be cheering you guys on for the race in Lander. Not sure if I'm up for that again yet.
Congrats Jeff! You are amazing. I got to hand it to you!
yeah jeff!!!!!!
I admire anyone who runs. Maybe I would like it if I gave it a better chance, but i prefer walking. Congrats to Jeff :)
I wanted Jordan to run with me but I didn't ever run that last race I was getting ready for (a 5K). I haven't found the inner fire I need to get going again.
Congratulations to the man. I think I'll enjoy marathon running vicariously via the blog while I'm sitting in my cushie chair - if you don't mind.
