Boston Marathon 2014

Chris qualified for the Boston Marathon and was able to participate April 2014. Pam, Ralph and I were there to cheer him on. He finished 3 hour 25 minutes. A little off his qualifying time of 3 hour 10 minutes. It was a beautiful sunny day with many supportive cheering crowds. Security was tighter after the bombings of last year.
Sentiments were strong in support of runners after prior year bombing.
