11218

That's my bib number...or what would have been my bib number. The race organizers emailed it to me today. But hey, Martin my physiotherapist says I can run for 5 whole minutes this weekend to see how that feels! It's a far cry from the 2.5 hours I was planning on running though.

I will be cheering on 68 year old Bro. Carlos Velazquez and thinking about him on Sunday while he runs the FULL marathon. That's right. The full marathon! AND his goal is to run it within 4 hours so he can qualify for the Boston Marathon!

Just to put that time into perspective, I was planning on running a HALF marathon in 2.5 hours. He's planning on running the FULL marathon in 4 hours.

Now THAT's inspiring.

GO BRO. VELAZQUEZ GO!
