DEB DOES HER FIRST MARATHON.  Ok so I didn't run in it, but I was a fabulous spectator/cheerleader.  The Twin Cities Marathon is touted to be The Most Beautiful Urban Marathon in America.  This year the 29th annual Medtronic Twin City Marathon was held October 3rd and my Niece, Erin and her husband Loren both participated in and finished the 26.2 mile course.  Loren had trained diligently for the race - hoping to qualify for the Boston Marathon next April.  8,211 runners completed the race and Loren crossed the finish line in 2 hours and 54 minutes - claiming spot #181. Lookout Boston - here we come.  We are so proud of both of them!!
