Akron Marathon

The Akron Marathon celebrated 10 years this past weekend.  It was also the first race I attended but was not a participant.  My husband had a last minute call to enter as a relay participant.  We knew several other people racing so I didn't hesitate to get up at 4:30 am and to enjoy it as a spectator. A's sister was also running her first full marathon.  The weather was perfect running weather, so great to watch and cheer on as well as run 5 miles around the University of Akron Campus.  It was my first time there so running and walking was a perfect way to find my way around.  Both my husband as well as A's sister did well in their events which topped the morning off.  It was a lot of fun to cheer other people on and see the other side of things.  It was also very motivating and I can't wait to run my next race! - P
