Were you one of the 11,000 people who finished the 42nd Annual Seattle Marathon and Half-Marathon?
I hope your feet aren’t hurting you too bad. I myself have ran several marathons. There is no good reason but just a choice for anyone and congratulations to those who did it. You can now cross that goal off your bucket list.
This is an annual event for those running freaks that move to Seattle we do have this event and also a few others coming up in the year.
The marathon started and finished at Seattle Center, winding through several Seattle neighborhoods and closing several streets and freeways for hours.
