Eddie runs the Philadelphia Marathon and Pics of the girls!

Philadelphia Marathon

     The first weekend in November Eddie ran the Philadelphia Marathon. Eddie, Emma and I just went for the weekend. Lyla stayed home with her grandparents. Emma was so excited to watch her dad run a race and we cheered him on at different miles during the race. Eddie's goal was to run the marathon (26.2 miles) in under 3 hours and he rocked in the marathon and finished in 2 hours and 59 minutes. That averages out to 6:50 per mile! Eddie had a custom bib made for DWARFISM AWARENESS and he wore it proudly during the race. Here are some pics from our fabulous weekend in Philly!


We went to the Philadelphia convention center to pick up Eddie's race number

Inside were all these different vendors
