Honolulu Marathon 2009

My street is always blocked on Marathon Sundays 'cause the runners pass right by it. I used to resent being trapped. I would bake Christmas cookies on that day. Not anymore!! Now I bake cookies on another day 'cause Marathon Sunday is another picture-taking opportunity for me and I love it!

Thanks Les! Watching the runners makes ME wanna train too . . . except I never could run. And I figured that even if I walked 20-minute miles, it would take me over 8 hours!!
