marathoning


note my freckly face!

Sunday was the dreaded Marine Corps Marathon. I did ok despite a hot, humid and very lazy summer training season. It was a great course and we loved the marines. Nothing more motivating than a ,"Way to go, ma'am" from a handsome young man in uniform.

It was a fun girly weekend with Courtney, Michele, Emily and special guest appearance by Katie. And of course marathons mean an excuse to eat. And eat. Thanks, Courtney and Andrew, for a great weekend!

Immediately after the race I swore that that was it for me, but now I am rethinking. C and I decided that spring marathons are a way better idea since you can train during the colder months. Sounds like a plan!

I just checked out the action shots they take. Of course they all suck as usual. I especially love this gem of me and my ba-ba:

This would make a fantastic Christmas card, no?
