this year one of my favorite days in nyc…marathon day…. just got a lot better!
ERIN RAN THE MARATHON THIS YEAR!!!!!
If you’ve never watched the marathon live and cheered on the runners it’s definitely something you should try to do some day. This year we had the extra excitement of cheering on not just the strangers, but also and most importantly Erin and Andrea!

We got gigantic balloons, a smiley face and unicorn head, so that they could spot us in the crowd while they were running. Erin helped me pick them out and we think they’re awesome
. They weren’t so fun the on the subway or in the wind, but Dad was a rockstar and kept them under control!

next stop….Brooklyn!!

8 miles…..Lafayette St, Brooklyn

17.5 miles….1st Ave and 87th St

YAY Erin!!!

Erin and Andrea looking like they just started running

i think she was having a good time ![]()

blowing the crowd kisses

24 miles….Central Park Drive and 87th (can you see Erin coming?)

not feeling quite as good at mile 24, but still running her heart out!

Andrea enjoying the roar of the crowd

Erin’s cheering section and our homemade signs…Go Erin Go!

our 3hr and 59min finisher!!!! totally amazing!!!!


Congratulations Erin and Andrea on an amazing and inspiring race!!!
