November marked the BIG rival football game between BYU & the University of Utah.
Cadence goes to BYU, but Trek runs the ROTC Unit at the U so there's always been that rivalry in our house. (My whole family went to BYU, but Trek graduated from the U)
Trek thought it would be fun to have the ROTC units from BYU & the U run the game football from BYU stadium to the U stadium on the game day. They woke up at the crack of dawn & BYU ran it from Provo to Draper, then Trek's cadets picked it up in Draper & ran it the 23 miles to the University of Utah stadium. They arrived at 4:00 in the afternoon & were able to watch the game from the field. It was such an incredible experience for everyone involved.
They ran right passed our house so we got some of our neighbors outside & we cheered them on as they passed by us. It was great. Trek ran 8 of the miles in his full uniform too. He had so much fun. I hope this becomes a tradition for them.
