Good Evening!
I decided to go ahead and head down to the finish line area of the ING New York City Marathon just to watch all the runners reuniting with their family and friends. -When my brother ran the marathon two years ago, I really found all the the "reunions" quite inspiring and moving. Today was no different.
*And as an added bonus... I happened to notice this one guy kneeling down behind one of the walls along Central Park West holding a video camera. He was filming a couple who was sitting on one of the rocks just inside the Park. And I noticed a woman also "hiding" next to him talking to someone on her cellphone. Sure enough, a few minutes later, the man on the rock pulled a ring out of his jacket, and proposed to the woman, who happened to have just finished running the marathon. So, not only had only did she garner a finisher's medal, but she also scored and engagement ring today too! -And she did say, "Yes!".
