Chicago Marathon 2009

Shaun ran his 1st marathon this weekend in Chicago. It was an awesome experience and he ran an awesome race. He ran it in 4 hrs 50 min. Not to shabby for his first time. He had quite the cheering crowd too - Me, Owen, Andrea (Shauns mom), Jenny (my stepmom), Rachel (my sister), & Lisa (my aunt). Here are some pics:

Shaun right before the race began:
Some runners before we saw Shaun - they were running really fast.
Shaun after we saw him between mile 2 & 3
The cheering crowd minus me. It was cold so we had our cheer shirts on over our several layers.
Owen got a little bored waiting for daddy.
Mile 12 - looking good
The Finish line - that's about as much of it as we could see.
