MARATHON

Sarah ran in the 30th Chicago marathon and it was historic. Record heat, record participates and record people who did not finish.
It was almost 90 in Chicago on Sunday, Oct 7 and the humidity was at least that. The marathon started at 8 am and at 3 hrs and 50 minutes - they cancelled it. People who ran that fast qualified for the Boston marathon. People were dropping like flies - all you heard were sirens. It was nerve wracking until I heard from Sarah and she was ok. She finished the marathon in 4 hours and 43 minutes. She hoped to do it in 4:20 but I think she did fine. I'm so proud of her.
I did meet the boyfriend Dave - but only for 10 minutes and of course after the race. He was a little discouraged because he's knee was bothering him and he didn't have a good run. He seemed very nice and as long as he is good to Sarah - I won't have to hurt him.
