Marine Corps Marathon Congratulations

Congratulations to my baby brother (okay, he’s 34, maybe not a baby anymore), who successfully completed the Marine Corps Marathon Sunday morning. It was his first marathon ever, and he placed 6,222 out of approximately 18,000 runners.

We made it a family affair (three generations) to cheer him on, and had a great time doing so — although, as it turned out, he didn’t see us.

Congratulations also to the winners.
