LOTOJA 2009

Jon decided he wanted to put a test to his body again this year and did LOTOJA for the third year! Why anyone would want to ride a bike 206 miles in one day is crazy to me. We decided to take the kids this year to see him do this race and they had a great time. It was fun to have them with me during the day to cheer him on at the feed zones and along the road when we saw him. Everyone but Brianna was able to go with me. Brianna felt bad but she had a tennis tournament she had to be at in St. George that weekend. Once again this year we had a house full of company all getting ready for the big day. Alan and his family, Tee and her family with Mindy this year, and also McKay a friend of Alans that came this year to do the race also. Needless to say it was total chaos and lots of people but we all did fine!


Coming into the first feed zone Jon felt good!

One last mountain to climb and Jon still looked good for being almost done!

Coming across the finish line in 10 hrs. 30 mins.!
Way to go Jon we are proud of you!

Jon & Alan after a long day of riding 206 miles!
What an awesome accomplishment!

The support crew at the end of the day! Heidi is the only one not in the picture, she was the photographer for the day and got some great pictures of Jon.

3 times doing it and 3 times able to finish!
We love you and are proud of you Jon!
