Hi Annie, :) thanks so much for liking my photo and take. It really cracked me up when I saw this volunteer holding the signs pointing in opposite directions. I made a joke with him about the really tough decision he was giving me with his signs and then asked to take his photo. He was a good sport. The photo did come in handy for this week's fun theme. :) Have a great weekend too Annie!
Great photo, Kathy! I'd be with you and Jerry, looking for the gelato shop!
The one half-marathon I ran was a loop route; the half ended at the start point, and the full marathon made a second loop. I felt really sorry for those poor people, it was a very hilly run and I'm sure that knowing all the hills that lay ahead would have made the back half doubly hard!
Hi G & Sandra, thanks so much for your comments and for liking my photo ...
G, I like the way you think too. :) I'm glad you lik my photo. The visual of the opposite pointing arrows was just too cute to pass up. I figure I'm way behind my friends anyway, might as well enjoy myself and snap a few souvenir photos. he, he!
Sandra, oh Gelato would have been fabulous. A friend came back from running the Paris Marathon and she said that at one point they were serving wine and oysters! Can you imagine. :)
I totally agree with your thoughts on feeling sorry for those runners who had to run the hilly loop again. This race was a loop course too, but luckily very flat. The only challenge was that it was very windy and I actually had wind burns on my legs after the race. It would've been much harder, if it was hilly too.
Thanks again G & Sandra. Hope you have a great week.
Too funny! You're the only person I've seen who actually has a photo of the word "half." Very cool take on the theme. Have a great weekend.

ReplyDeleteLOL - I know which way I'd be going (if I ever made it to that point that is.)
