2009 Rock-N-Roll Marathon...

























It's that time of year...Rock-N-Roll Marathon time! Tons of runners...always cool to see. Our downstairs neighbor Veronica was running this year...she's the one leaping in the air with joy. Our place is right at the 2 mile marker...people are still smiling at this point. Meggy was keeping track of the Elvi...I think the final total was 14. After the race passed our place I took a walk down to the 163 where one of the water stations is. It is so frantic down there it's insane...everyone running, grabbing water, tossing their cups, people handing out water...madness. And I saw Bill Walton a few times riding his bike.

This whole getting up early and being productive on a Sunday morning is kind of nice...but it's definitely going to lead to a nap here real soon!

Rock and Roll Marathon...







So many freaking people...We are right by the 2 mile mark of the race. Everyone is still happy and waving at this point...24.2 miles to go. It's great watching everyone run by...but...6:30am?! Sounds like poor planning to me. Normally we walk down to the 163 to check out the mass of people running under the overpass...Buuut we were still feeling the effects of the Alibi from the previous evening. So you'll have to imagine what that looks like. Lot's of good stuff coming up...Martin comes home, The Pierce Parent's come for a visit and The Greek Festival...Best Gyros EVER!!!
