My marathon pictures are up!
Edited on Tue Oct-16-07 09:49 PM by Jimbo S
per request by another DU'er last month.

This is me participating in Milwaukee's Lakefront Marathon on Sunday the 7th, at the same time all heck was breaking loose in Chicago 75 miles to the south (refer to other threads for Chicago).

70 F at the start and 80 F at the finish but I was prepared, ran well and had a blast!

Pics #1-#5 - action photos
#6 - caught me with a dorky look
#7 - my age group award, which was presented to me by Bill Rogers
#8 - nice day for sailboats on the lake
#9 - my No. 1 fan! :)

4. Insane, and fucking weird to boot!
:hi:

Yep, my 12th one.

You're not the first person who's mentioned to me since that they didn't know Milwaukee had a marathon.

Our group that puts it on acknowledges it, but we don't have the PR skills. We're working on it. The MJS had a short preview this year that led to more spectators, and a follow-up.
