Well, we made it back from London and we had a great time! London is an awesome city that we would highly recommend to anyone who can get there. Four days was not quite enough to see everything though. We literally just walked past each attraction snapping pictures and headed off to the next. But we did make it to all the majors. We stopped by The Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, The London Eye, and Buckingham Palace. We also really wanted to see St. Paul's Cathedral but we only got a picture from afar and The Tower Bridge, which we saw but it was pouring down rain so we couldn't get a pic of it. Check out our pictures of the trip in the London Pics Album.
But I'm sure what you all really want to hear about is the marathon! Race day was unbelievable. The amount of people that came out to support the runners was like nothing we have ever seen before. The entire course was lined with huge crowds of people offering their support to the runners. It was truly amazing. Sorry I don't have many pictures of the race, me and Isaac spent most of the time on the underground trying to get from the start to the finish. The race was so crowded there was no way we would have seen Joe.
It was really nice to see all the people running for charities too. The London marathon raises more money for charities than any other event in the world! We were proud to be supporting Parkinson's Disease Society and so should YOU because so many of you contributed to that charity. Thank you!!!
And now for the results! Joe completed his 26.2 miles in 3hrs 8min!!! Out of 35,000 people he placed 1492! Out of all the men in his age group he placed 836! I'm not sure if it's considered rude for me to brag about my husband, but I don't care. I'm so proud of him! He has amazing God given talent and determination.
