Harrisburg Marathon Weekend

What a wonderful weekend! Kevin and I took a little road trip down to Harrisburg for him to run the marathon. He had trained all Summer for the Erie Marathon back in September, but unfortunately tore a calf muscle during a long run just a few weeks before. He worked so hard to rehab and thankfully felt strong enough to run. Since he started running a few years ago he made qualifying for Boston his goal, and he did it!! It was amazing to see and we are all sooo proud! I shared lots of snapshots of our trip on my Instagram, which I especially love for special moments like this one!

  4. Congrats to your husband! That is a great accomplishment! If you travel with him to Boston definitely check out GatherHere in Cambridge. It is the best modern fabric store around here and they have lots of other crafty items there too. And if you need suggestions for places to eat, stay, etc let me know.

  7. Congrats to him! I got offered the chance to do the London Marathon after doing the Glasgow half 3 times, but my doc told me no more running because of the joint problems I have, so now I have to cheer from the sidelines!

    PS, I'm just back from a very last minute week away to that really remote place we were talking about, I'm blaming it all on you ;o)
