Addendum

Here are a couple of videos of Alex in motion. As usual, I had a hard time both filming and cheering. I learned from the first video (mile 11.5) that I should just cut my losses and stop filming when I want to cheer (sorry in advance for all your eardrums when you watch the video). That's why the second video (mile 23) cuts short before he gets too close. It's kind of hard to pick Alex out in the first video since he's in the middle of the pack. It's like playing Where's Waldo. At the end of the video you can see his torso go by--it's the one clothed in a maroon shirt. As you can see, the weather started out less than inspiring, but that's the beauty of a marathon--there's plenty of time for the weather to change! By 9:30 the sun was shining and the runners finally had a chance to dry out.

Swit Sweer, who's the guy at the end of the first video who has the close-up with his shirt off?

I like your cheering Suz, it put a big smile on my face.

So were you bummed watching the marathon or were your secretly glad you didn't have to torture yourself?
