Boston RACE DAY! April 20, 2015

It's go time!
 Dean waiting to board the bus.
Dean had injured his calf muscle 2 weeks before, and hadn't run a single step since.  We had no idea how things were going to go on this race.


I was in Boston, hanging around the finish line.  I found a place where I could watch the start of the race!  So cool to be watching where Dean was at that moment!
Meanwhile, in
 Hopkinton, Massachusetts 
 This is where the marathon starts.  Dean was being the perfect husband, and taking pictures of his experience so he could share them.  Yep, he is pretty cool.....and fast.
 Check out all the porta-potties!
Those are all porta-potties in this picture too!


Heading to the start line of the 
BOSTON MARATHON!

.


And they are off and running!  Awesome cheerleaders all along the route!


And here he comes!  His calf muscle didn't bother him at all.  This was one excited runner!  He was just about to finish running the Boston Marathon.  
I watched as with tears in his eyes he looked at the crowds cheering for all the runners.  He took these next pictures as he was finishing the race.


 Yep, that is the finish line right there.

All the runners got "space blankets" at the finish.
(cool picture Dean!)

 We finally found each other after the race.  What an amazing experience!
