Vermont City Marathon 2004

This year we had two marathoners in the family. Walter completed it in 3:41 and Hope did her first ever marathon in 4:45. WooHoo!! The day started out cool and sunny but warmed up quickly. A light wind helped for part of it, but not for other parts. The crowd was great. Highlights included the bagpipe players, the Taiko drummers to help with the "assualt on Battery Street hill" and the Sambutacada drummers way out on the beltline that kept everyone going.

Three cheers for ibuprofin!!
