2011 Boston Marathon

Hooray for Marathon Monday!

Mel, one of the coaches from CFNE, lives right on Route 135 and had a big Boston Marathon party at her house, so we went over there- she doesn't live too far away, and you can't beat the views!  The weather was just perfect this year, we had our coats on when we first got there, but took them off as it got warmer.  The runners would probably have said that it was actually a little *too* warm.


Here the kids were playing with sidewalk chalk that they stole from some of the other CFNE kids.  Grant also was playing with the little boy behind him's trucks.  Forget the trucks we brought for him to play with.  He wanted someone else's.


Some of the fastest female marathoners in the world right there.  Natalie wasn't that impressed, but mommy sure was.


Here come the super fast men!  I still wonder how the heck they keep that pace.  This year the guy who won set a record- just slightly over 2 hours!!!!


But the real fun begins when the rest of the pack runs by.  Some people are dressed up, which is always fun.  This year, we cheered on 4 members of CFNE who were running - and this guy Craig actually stopped in front of us, did a burpee, and kept running!  Now that's talent!
