I saw this when I was looking to see if there was any mention of the Halls' entries in the Great North Run on twitter.

I am not a big fan of Ryan's but I think this was a very sweet tweet to see today.
Very, VERY, cool. I now love this couple. Adoption is amazing. Keeping these girls together is amazing.
Thank you for being good humans, Halls.

Good on him.
But 4? All at the same time? They will definitely have their hands full.
Get a haircut, you hippie.
GOD bless them :)
The young one looks to be a promising miler, second youngest will probably follow in daddy's footsteps as a marathoner. The other two can be in field events or something.
They are definitely not democrats.

Yes, because what do democrats like Eunice Shriver do for children?

Think about what you wrote. Ryan and Sara have frequently and publicly done things that are on par with the sweetness of this act. This kind of stuff defines them. If you find this particular action positive, how can you say you are not a fan of his?
I was hoping that Ryan was tweeting about finishing a marathon? Ryan is looking a bit like Bruce...
That's great Ryan and Sara! Good luck with your new fam!
My adoption running story---
My wife and I adopted siblings seven years ago (today). My son was thirteen at the time and my daughter was nine. When we arrived home from Ethiopia I decided to go on a run since it had been two weeks since my last run. My son wanted to come with me but I was a little hesitant because no grown man wants to be beaten by his son in anything:) I reluctantly decided that he could come with me. In the first mile I think we stopped two times for him to catch his breath. We were jogging at 7:30-8:00 pace. After our two mile run I told my wife that the Ethiopian running gene missed my son. Fast forward three years-- He comes home from high school soccer practice and told me the team ran a timed mile (1600). Like every father I asked him what his time was and he said, "4:55". My reply was "bullshit we are going to the track tomorrow." At the track the next day he ran a 5:10 mile. I told my wife that apparently the running gene has not missed our son (it has missed our daughter). At the end of the soccer season I signed him up for his first road 5k. Not thinking that he had any chance of winning, I did not go over the course map with him. My race instructions were to pace himself because it was a long race. Within a minute of the gun going off he is in the lead with a gap on the 200+ competitors. From about 25m back I was yelling slow down, slow down you are running too fast. At about the half-way mark in the race the runners turn around and head back the other side of the road. As I was running toward mark I noticed some of the runners already heading back down. I did not see my son so I figured he got to the mark and clasped (lesson learned). When I get to the mark, in the distance I see this person running. I realize it is my son and I yell to him to stop and come back. Not deterred by his mistake, he quickly makes up the distance on me and ended up finishing second in the race. The winner was a very nice men and gave him the first place ribbon. My son went on to have a successful high school runner career and is now running in college.
collapsed- not clasped
Bless the family.
Your move, Colt Goucher.
Finally someone in the Hall family will have a chance at winning a major championship!
Maybe I am a jerk, but aren't there plenty of American children that need his help and desperately need to be adopted. What is with the American obsession with adopting foreigners?
Wow - that's awesome. It's so hard for family members to stay together through adoptions since not many families are willing to adopt that many at the same time.
Am I living in the twilight zone? The Boston Marathon weather was terrible!
