Hooray for Fall!

They did it, they did it!

I can hardly even practically believe it. But my mom and dad both did it - they crossed the finish line of the ING NYC Marathon! Official times:

Mom: 4:11:40

Dad: 5:09:13

My Grandpa, Bobelepie and my great Uncle Moishe all flew in for the occasion to experience the collective high that is marathon mania in New York. And my Bobelepie (mom's mom) worked off years of guilt missing high-school track meets by standing out in the cold in multiple locations to cheer my parents on. A victory for all. Most importantly, no more long training runs - which means I can take back my Sundays with mom and dad. Harrumph.
