Marathon Cheerleaders

The three younger kids and I spent our first morning of spring break
watching the Boston Marathon.
Our friend Danny qualified to run in it this year,
and we hoped to catch a glimpse of him as he ran past.


Although we didn't get to this stretch of the course in time to see him,
it was still fun to watch a portion of this world-famous race.
The weather was a bit rainy, but that didn't deter the roughly 30,000 runners . . .


. . . and 500,000 spectators who lined the course to cheer them on.


I thought it was a especially cool to see blind racers
running with a guiding teammate . . .


. . . or wheelchair duo teams like "Team Unstoppable."
Go Mike and Kyle!
