Dad Runs Marathon

In what appears to be an early sign of midlife crisis, Dad ran a marathon just days before his birthday.

Since Dad was the only participant of this unofficial marathon of his own design, Leon supposed to play the role of the cheering crowd, a mobile feed area and an EMT. Leon, however, overslept, and Dad had to reserve to drinking questionable quality water in the public restrooms along the way. Leon did eventually woke up, brought Dad some goodies and then organized a finish line celebration.

Here is the route:Dad finished the 26.75 miles in 4 hours 25 minutes. Since he overshot the official 26.22 marathon by more than a half-a-mile, he now claims that he finished the distance in 4:20.
