Twin Cities Marathon - Go Chris Go!

On Thursday I will be winging it towards Minneapolis to join Cathy and all the gang she has been living with for almost two weeks. Chris will be joining us as well and as long as he is going to be there, he is planning to run the Twin Cities Marathon on Sunday.



The best part is that the marathon course will take him within a couple of blocks of US! Right around mile 3 and a half or so. You can see the course here.

It will be nice to stroll over and watch him run by. Then of course we will jump in the car and try to catch him again a couple more times along the course.

This is Chris in the Boston Marathon this past April. We went and cheered him along. Here he is slowing enough to shed clothing as he passes us. (Click on the photo to enlarge.)



Our mantra is "Go Chris Go!" as he runs by. Cathy sewed the letters on the shirt that he is wearing so other people all along the course would yell the same thing as well and encourage him. We're looking forward to cheering him along.

The Twin Cities Marathon bills it's self as "The Most Beautiful Urban Marathon in America".

Go Chris Go!
