Here are a couple of pictures I took at the inaugural San Antonio Rock 'N' Roll Marathon this past weekend. My friend Ashley and a group from Team in Training ran the half marathon. Several of us volunteers worked as cheerers to help motivate the runners to keep pushing on and make it to the finish line.
The race sold out with 30,000 participants. As you can imagine, downtown SA was a mad house that day. After dropping off Ashley at 6 am, Steph and I found our cheer spot between miles 3 & 4 and waited in the cold for the race to start. It took about 4 hours for everyone from the San Antonio Team in Training group to make it to this point - mostly because we were early and because they let participants start in groups so you don’t have 30,000 people all starting at once. Then we made our way to the finish line at the Alamodome and cheered everyone to the finish.
