Marathon Madness

My favorite sign running the marathon:

Because 26.3 Miles would be CRAZY.

I wanted to give you an idea of some of the signs we saw along the way and some others I didn't see, but wish I woulda!.  They just make you feel awesome.


  • "On this day, you're my hero."
  • "Pain is temporary, pride is forever."
  • "You've done harder things than this."
      • "It's not 26.2 miles…it's 10 water stops."
  • "Last is just the slowest winner."
  • "My mommy is faster than your mommy."
  • "If it was easy, everyone would do it."
  • The person who starts the race is not the same person who finishes the race."
  • "This 26.2 is for all the girls picked last in gym class."
    • In our minds, you're all Kenyans."
    • "Your feet hurt because you are kicking so much butt!"

    • “Mommy, Have You Peed Your Pants Yet?”

    • “Humpy Dumpy Had Wall Problems Too”
    • Thanks to Megan's Sister Keena and Her husband Nick for the One Sign with our names on it :)  Note to self, Must take lessons from a photographer on posing for pictures.  Flattering ones happen so rarely.

      Before the Start
      • “Running is a mental sport.  You’re all INSANE!”

      • “This seemed like a good idea three months ago, didn’t it??”

      • "Phiddipides almost died at this point in the race" 
        • "One foot in front of the other. That's all."
        • "You are no longer a runner, YOU are a marathoner."
