The Boston Marathon is a mere 32 days away...
To many that is just a sentence to me it is about completing something I never thought possible.
I can remember watching my dad run Boston as a bandit during the 100th anniversary year.
(Note: bandit means he ran without an official racebib/number)
I grew up in Boston and on Patriot's Day there were two things everyone did: 1) watched or attended the early morning Red Sox game and 2) watched or attended The Boston Marathon.
And this year I will actually be running in it.
I will proudly wear my Tedy's Team singlet in honor of my grandparents - my Stroke heroes - and accomplish something I've only dreamed of ... hopefully! ;) As long as the temps aren't in the 90s again .... c'mon weather gods!
But, this post isn't about all my emotions about running The Boston Marathon - that post will be coming and I will make sure you all have tissues at the ready.
Today, I want to share an amazing Photo Challenge created by my friend Ty from Seeking Boston Marathon. I have been following Ty's training for Boston on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.
It is the #30DaysToBoston #PhotoChallenge...
I was so excited about it that when Ty asked for partnership from other blogger's running I jumped right on board.
So the premise is pretty simple - especially if you have taken part in photo challenges before, just snap a pic associated with the subject for that day and post it on any of the social media outlets you have: Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter.
Make sure when you post your pic to include the 2 main hashtags - #30DaysToBoston & #PhotoChallenge - as well as the hashtag for the day.
Sound easy? Want in? Just get started on Sunday!
I think this is just the thing to get my excitement over running Boston to grow more than I thought it could. :P
So I will catch you on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter starting on Sunday...
And hey it's St. Patrick's Day so grab a beer while you do it!
That's carboloading, right? :)
