I did it! I ran the marathon and finished it in time to beat the 5:40 time limit. My ankle didn't bother my very much but I had a little trouble because I still have a cold. It was a fantastic beautiful course through the streets of Paris past all if the most famous sights.
This was the start line by the Arc de Triomphe.

That was fun! We did a 5K run this morning here in Paris as a warmup. I got to meet the team, got a little exercise, and figured out the metro system. My flight out of Seattle was delayed 7 hours so I didn't get to my hotel until midnight. I'm still feeling pretty bad with my cold and cough but plan to rest a lot today. Tomorrow is the marathon. I hope I'm feeling a lot better by then!
