Sweet T and the Oakland Running festival

Oakland had their inaugural marathon last weekend. Bill and I went out to support Miss T and enjoyed some sunshine and Oakland vibe at the same time. Everyone was so enthused!

Watching people cross the finish line was really amazing. I mean, some runners were definitely fit, and yes this was a challenge, but there were others who you know were really struggling at the end. They hobbled, they walked, they paused to stretch, but then kept going --all while a crowd along Broadway cheered them on. Neat.

And what? What you say? Here's a wee video of our own Sweet about 100 feet pre-finish line. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH!
