Today is Marathon Monday here in Mass. and the Boston Marathon Starts in Hopkinton and that is the next town over from me.
So we pedalled on over , my Wife on her road Bike , Peter on His Mt Bike and Jessica and I on the Tandem.
We found a Nice spot a little over a Mile from the start.
Our timing was great we got there about 11:25.
and the Wheelchairs went off at 11:30
and there were several of the hand crank models out there .
Then they sent the Competitive Women Off about 5 minutes later ( this is the first time I can recall them doing this )
then there was a Small Break and my Daugher had to go to the Bathroom, There were some Port a pottys up the road about 1/2 mile , so My wife took my daughter ( who took Peters bike ) and here they are coming back
the Competitive Men
Next Came the Hordes Of People !!!!
and on ward to Boston!
and My son was having a great time cheering on the runner by giving them "5" as they went past . ( he claims he had over 300 People , 300 out of 25000 not bad )
And 2 marines Doing it with FULL Pack.
after all the people had run past us ( which took over 45 Minutes after the Hordes of people started running ) we got on our bike and road back home with plenty of time to see the winners on TV, and our Whole ride 12.6 miles
