Here are the additional results that I have received so far:

Uncle Tim 17:00
Stephanie 22:11
Aunt Jeanne 27:58

Unfortunately many did not receive their shirts yet.  :-( But here are some photos as proof of their run.  :-)

Uncle Tim running his 2 miles in High Valley -- 17:00

Preston ran a 5K loop in Chico -- therefore no two-mile time.

Stephanie --22:11 (good enough for the silver medal if you were here -- Kylee is glad you're not.  :-))

Aunt Linda -- 34:57 (Coming in just ahead of Kylee with a time of 35:01)
It would've been fun to see that race to the finish line.  :-)

Myron Hampton Stone Memorial Two Mile Run -- Results

Today we held our first annual Myron Hampton Stone Memorial Two Mile Run.  We were able to have it at the Eatonville track.  The weather couldn't have been more beautiful.  Everyone did a great job and looked awesome in their shirts.  Here is my design:

I chose green for the color scheme because that was Dad's favorite color. I Photoshopped each image of Dad and put them on the track.  Very time-consuming.  Especially using only voice control.

From left to right: Dad running at Santa Rosa Junior College, Dad running later in life (probably mid 40s), and Dad working out with the BYU track team.  Two of the images were very poor resolution so I did the best I could.

I worked really hard on it and I think it turned out awesome.  If I do say so myself.  :-)

Special thanks to Lisa for all her hard work in pressing the T-shirts and mailing them to our out-of-state family. She also ran the errands and set up the race and registration and awards. Lisa put a lot of work into helping put this race together.  I really appreciate it.

Also special thanks to Rex for being our timer and statistician.  He did a great job as our race official.

And thanks to Juliet for providing the hoagies and drinks.  Everything was delicious.

Thank you to all who participated in any way.  I'm sure Dad is very pleased with how it all came together and how much support he had today.

By the way, for perspective, Dad ran his personal best of 8:50 in the two-mile at Stockholm Sweden while touring Europe with the BYU track team in 1968.

Prize drawing winners.  Cody with his large framed poster, Lisa with her replica vintage BYU track T-shirt, and Kingston with his smaller framed poster.

 Lisa was the first name drawn.  She chose the vintage BYU track shirt.  I chose the font and printed out the lettering.  Lisa painstakingly cut each letter out separately and pressed it in five different areas.  She did a great job on the layout and was hoping to win the shirt after all of her hard work.  And she did!  I think it turned out great and looks exactly like the shirt Dad is wearing in the photo.  I actually remember him wearing that when I was a kid.  That's how I knew it was a light blue T-shirt.

Kingston was the next name chosen in the drawing.  He chose the smaller 12 x 16 poster in the frame.

Cody was the third name drawn and received the 24 x 36 giant poster in the frame.  I think they were all pleased with their winnings.

All in all, I think everybody had a good time and enjoyed the race.  I hope so.

For those of you out of state, I hope you all received your shirts by now.  They were all mailed out on Tuesday with a few on Wednesday.  The post office is claiming slower delivery times due to COVID, so if you didn't get it by now, hopefully early next week.

I will update this blog with the photos, names and times of those who are participating out of state.

One Year

It's been exactly one year since Dad graduated from mortality.  It's been a hard year without him.  I miss him every day.

I tried to put the pictures in chronological order but it was too difficult with Dragon.  So this is the best I could do.

I love you, Dad!  I miss you!  I can't wait till I get to graduate so I can see you again.  Perhaps you'll be at your Memorial race on Saturday and kick everyone's can!  :-)

wookatah wookatah!

That's my two cents.
