38th Marine Corp Marathon

Yesterday, I watched the Marine Corp Marathon from a couple of different spots and cheered on the runners. Absolutely everyone of them has my respect. They inspired me to increase my Sunday long run from eight to nine miles. There is no way I can run a marathon, or at least not yet, but they inspired me to up my game. Below are a few of my photos that I took. Some runners are dressed in costume. Some military members are dressed in military gear including backpack. Some carried flags. One guy jump roped. One guy ran while juggling three footballs and dressed as Robert Griffith III because evidently running is just not a challenge (check out his photo below, as the best part is the look on the face of female runner next to him). At the end of this post is all the photos that I took on the extremely off chance that someone who reads this blog post knows someone in or was in the marathon and I by chance got their photo. If so, leave me a comment, and I will be happy to send you a copy.IMG_0224 IMG_0246 IMG_0256 IMG_0270 IMG_0276 IMG_0280 IMG_0285 IMG_0289 IMG_0299 IMG_0309 IMG_0314 IMG_0315 IMG_0322 IMG_0360 IMG_0364 IMG_0393 IMG_0407 IMG_0410 IMG_0412 IMG_0417 IMG_0418 IMG_0447 IMG_0450 IMG_0452
