So the half-marathon that Carrie has been training for over the past few months finally took place on Saturday. I was at Brendon's the night before watching the NCAA Tournament games and didn't get into bed until 2 a.m. I got woken up 3 hours later so I could drive Carrie as well as Nikki and Eric to the Marathon starting line. I brought my bike and my camera and posted up at mile #2 to see Carrie and Nikki run by. From there I rode along side of them and then skipped ahead to Dupont Circle to get a good spot to see everyone run by. After that, I metroed to Union Station and got a spot around mile #11 and took some more photos. I tried to make it to the finish line, but I got a bit lost and Carrie apparently crossed a minute or so before I got there.
I got some good photos, but mostly proud of Carrie because she was very worried about not being able to do it and she ended up doing great. However, I will spare you all pictures of her blistery, jacked up feet.
You're sweet. With a good sense of humor. And good photographing skills! I wish there were some of me crossing the finish line!
