The 26.2 With Donna
Jacksonville Florida
February 21st, 2010
These boards where there for everyone to sign or put a message on. They had them along the course as well and then they are going to blow parts of them up to make Billboards to advertise the race for next year.
Our shirts had a picture of Randie in her pink wig and read: "Running for Randie's Ta Ta's!"
Some of my other favorite shirts people had were ones that read "Saving 2nd Base" or there was a marathon relay team called the "Rack Pack". I thought those were pretty good :-)
We were lining up here for the start. The sun was just coming up so we were starting to thaw out..
It was really amazing to see how many people were running for someone they loved. People had costumes, tutu's, guys wore pink running skirts...one guy even ran the whole way with these huge pink angel wings attached to him.
After finishing....
Post race, off to find our free beers!!
ahhhh....found them....

It was FREEZING at 530am before the sun came up.
Still looking a little sleepy and jet lagged in this picture..

After finishing....It was a beautiful race, we ran along the hard packed beach for a few miles and then through these amazing old plantation neighborhoods which were nice and shady. The spectators were amazing, dressing their houses up, bands playing, setting up extra water and orange slice stations... Then the last 7 or 8 miles were along the freeway back to the Mayo Clinic with no shade and it was HOT! I thought I was going to melt into the pavement. I guess we forgot to put sunscreen on too...We ended up with some great farmers tans/sunburns..ha!
