We took the train into the city to pick up our press credentials, visit the expo, and see people that we see infrequently. Saturday evening we had dinner with Falmouth Matt and his friend who would run the marathon Sunday morning.
We stayed outside of the city for a couple nights with good friends. It was great to see them.
Sunday was the marathon. Luckily for the runners, especially those at the front of the field, it was cooler than it might have been. That, coupled with the low humidity, allowed for some very fast times including a new men's course record.
Clay and I photographed from numerous locations, clocking about five miles of walking. It was pretty easy to get around without ever really getting stuck within the perimeter of the runners.
Next up, Baltimore Marathon, which is Saturday, October 15.
