Jes and me just after the finish line. (the tiny tie dyed spots towards the left)

My mother braved the weather to come up from Massachusetts to cheer us on.

The good parts? Company all the way around, no falling down, no puking. Alice took the picture of us finishing. The baby was great – interested and not yelling. Also the rain waited until we were done. And they had some salty snacks at the end.

The astonishing parts? We passed people. I totally did not expect that! Also a childhood friend's mom came, and cheered us on and took us out to a lovely lunch.
