1st: Becca did AMAZING! She was a champ through all of the heat (to give you an idea of the heat--I had tan lines from my tank top IN OCTOBER), and finished with a great time. To read more about her adventures from her perspective click here:
2nd: Spectating in a city that you don't live in proved slightly more challenging, but Nate and I considered it practice for our next Urban Dare. Plus, once we met up with Meghan and Emily we were pretty solid.
So, the Cheer Squad consisted of Meghan, Emily, Nate, Nick and I. Nick was on his bike, so we saw him every now and then.

We were making fun of Emily, who was aptly renamed "Flip Flop"--the whole time because she wore flip-flops--didn't plan ahead for the walking/running/jumping up and down---but it didn't phase her at all and she didn't slow down! :)
Here are some good action shots of Bec at Mile 13 and 17. Look at that stride, that form, those killer legs. GO BECCA GO!
And of course the finish line:
CONGRATS Becca! I am so proud of you. You did an amazing job!
