Marathon Weekend

It was a fun week leading up to Marathon Sunday. We went to the expo Thursday night : D And went to the Marathon Post Party on Saturday  it was a fun evening full of music, pasta, and fireworks. Humbe missed watching the fireworks with us which really bummed Miguelito out (you will see his face in the pic he was crying because he wanted to watch the fireworks with his daddy, I don't lie when I say we are a very close family and Miguelito loves his daddy). Sunday I got up at 4:00am  with Humberto, he got ready and off he went to take the bus to the start of the race - Staten Island!
It's always so much fun to go and watch the race and cheer on the marathon runners it is such an inspiration to see everybody running : D And the most exciting part - To see my Humbe pass by when he has 2 miles left to the finish line : D



Woooohhhooooooo!!!!! For our Humbe he  made it : D Yeah! I'm so proud of him...
He finished in 4:15:45 : D
Humbe completed his third marathon, they say your first marathon is always the hardest but he felt that this one was the hardest. During mile 20 he hit the "wall"! He felt dizzy and nausea's,and had to walk for a mile or two. His goal for this marathon was 3:30:00 but due to the fact that he felt bad and had to walk he lost time. We are proud of him for the fact that he finished no matter the time - it bummed him out that he did more than his usual 3 hours time, but now he's ready for next year and counting down the time to the 2011 ING NYC Marathon : D

  3. I LOVE this post SO much!!! Congratulations to your husband's AMAZING accomplishment!!! I can't even imagine being able to do the NYC marathon, let alone THREE times!!! That's so inspiring!! I know that the NYC marathon is a lot of people's aspiration and on the Today Show they were talking about that and I kept thinking "I KNOW someone who is running in that marathon today!!!! How cool is that?!?!" :) Well I feel I know your husband through you anyway :) haha I LOVE all the photos of your beautiful family!!!! I can see all the love your family has for each other and I love that so much. I just want to scoop Miguelito up and give him such a big hug! He's such a cutie pie! One day he's going to be the one running in the marathon just like his daddy and just like his Abuelito!
