St. George Marathon Cookies

St. George Marathon logo cookies.  When you can’t run in a marathon, at least make cookies to be part of the event!  Last year I ran this marathon in 3:57 and reached my goal of breaking four hours.  Unfortunately, I was not able to run after because of a problem with my hip.  So with all the free time from not training I began decorating cookies.  This has been such a fun hobby, but I hope to be able to run and decorate cookies soon.

The great thing about runners is they eat everything!  It was so much fun sitting with my daughter and nieces as they sold these outside the runners expo.  We were sold out in just a couple of hours, fast enough for them to not have to kick us out!  I would definitely make more of these soon.

I used my favorite sugar cookie dough recipe, and royal icing for the decorations.  The icing was colored with Americolor orange and tulip red.
