I haven’t posted because I was in Boston for the 113th Boston Marathon on Monday.
It was a lifelong dream, and I can’t believe how FAR it was to the Finish Line! I’m pretty sore today, but I made it!!
What?
Who’s lifelong dream?
Uhhhhh…
Okay, Spin’s lifelong dream.
Y’all know me too well.
But you should also know me well enough to know I would not lie to you.
It was a long haul to the finish line…….. from the hotel…..
I had to navigate the Subway and then hoof it SIX blocks through the masses to find the finish line bleachers.
I got some GREAT shots of Spin at the finish line. Having grown up in Boston, and now being a marathoner, running Boston was a dream come true for him. (Having a friend in high places with the title sponsor of the race helped, too!)
And yes. I AM also sore. I walked IN HEELS all those friggin’ blocks. (Gah, I was cute!) AND I lugged suitcases in an attempt to spare my aching man the burden. (He wasn’t impressed, by the way. He ran 26.2 miles, caught a flight home, didn’t need help with the luggage and STILL had enough energy for me at the end of the night, wink, wink. For real.)
There ain’t nuthin’ my man can’t do!
(And for all you Spin-lovers, he’s fine.)
((In both ways.))

Way to go, my brother! Think the younglings did just fine, even with tornado alarms sounding late into the night…
Way to go SPIN!!! And way to go Soliloqy, waliking in heals six blocks is a feat in its self!
I was gonna say … You run? That’s new. I wouldn’t have missed that. Then, I got it.

I have a friend that ran in the Marathon… well, he really isn’t my friend, his wife is my friend-I personally think he is a freak for running 26 miles-ALL AT ONCE! I don’t know how you are married to a runner–I mean, sure… the thighs and the tight rear end, but he RUNS-in a way that makes him…. well…. RUN.
Blech.
But I sure am glad you looked cute in your heels. It’s all about style baby.
