Marine Corps Marathon


30,000 runners registered. Mile marker 23 for the marathon was right out front of my apartment. Though Val and I had no problem crossing the street on our way to church just before 8am, I had to make a break for it to cut across them on my way back around noon. I caught a ride with my visiting teacher after we met, and she just had to drop me on Jefferson Davis since the one-way Clark street that runs alongside it, where the turnoff for my apartment building is, was filled with runners, not to mention blocked off. ;D  I hopped out of her car and onto the sidewalk where a couple of people were cheering. I started visiting with them. They’d been there a half hour. I stood with them for about 15 minutes before there was a slight clearing. I felt as though I’d get ran over. :S Betsy and Val spent 2 hours down there cheering. What troopers! I just sat in our apartment and watched the last 4 episodes of Prison Break season one.
