  • I was so excited to be in Boston to run the infamous Boston marathon, but the weather was horrible! With a nor-easter, heavy rains and 40 mile an hour head winds, it wasn't exactly what I had envisioned! But what do you do,,,,,, You just run it! The rain stopped and the crowds were incredible, even in the freezing cold weather. From mile 1 through 26, the crowd was there for encouragement! I wanted to finish in less than 4 hours, and I did! Going back this year and am praying for better weather!
