My brother-in-law recently completed his first marathon in Philadelphia. He’s been wanting to run one for a while and finally got his chance last Sunday at the Philadelphia Marathon. He had pretty nice weather and was able to run a good portion of the race with his son. I wasn’t able to be there to watch him run it but I did meet him the following morning in Washington, D.C. We all gave him a gentle ribbing about his new “walking style.” If you’ve ever run a marathon before, you know how badly your calves and hamstrings feel the first couple of days. Even stepping up onto a curb can be a challenge.
A marathon is a pretty big accomplishment for someone and definitely worthy of a post on my blog.Congrats, Marathon Jim!
