Hello all!  Well, we are back safe from Chicago and Josh survived!  He did so great.  He finished with a 9:21 pace which is really good.  I can't even run two miles at that pace I don't think.  It was pretty cold that day but it didn't rain or snow like they were predicting, so that was a blessing.  The weekend was fun, got to spend time with Josh's family which was fabulous.  The marathon was so fun! There were 35,000 runners and 1.5 million spectators!  We mapped out the course and drove all around Chicago to catch Josh and cheer him on.  We saw him 4 times which was great.  He recovered very well, though he was exhausted afterwards and the 45 minute train ride home was pretty painful I think!  But he celebrated with yummy Chicago style pizza.  Here are some pics !
