Michael finishes first Marathon

.....and he didn't need to be carried by Uncle Jake. Bill was quick to praise young Mikey's effort. At about mile 23, Bill waived Michael ahead and ended up finishing a few minutes behind Mikey. Jake (and Polly) were a few more minutes behind. Michael asked John how his time compared to John's best and John was 'forced' to inform Michael that he wasn't close to John's best time of 3:23 - the gauntlet is laid down. We'll see how fast Michael can be if he manages to get some training in prior to the next marathon. Annie, John, Beth, Jack, Elise and I were all impressed with Mikey, Bill and Jake finishing on an exceptionally warm day.
