Twin Cities Marathon: Way to Go SAM!!!!!

(Click picture to enlarge route)

Sam Foster finished the Twin Cities Marathon in 05:17:01! She looked awesome out there. The 26th annual Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon is considered "The Most Beautiful Urban Marathon in America."

She ran 26.2 miles, starting at the Metrodome in Minneapolis, traveling around the lakes and ending at the Saint Paul Capital. Her sisters Erica and Nicki also ran. Lyns, Gia, Mason and I were able to catch up with Rob and Bella to cheer her on at the 11 mile marker and the 16 mile marker. Here is the official site that tracked Sam's time: http://www.championchipmn.com:8080/TCM/Maptracker?bib=F2012

Here is a clip of her crossing the finish line. She is closest to the rail all the way to the right in the video. She's wearing a visor and green shorts.




I also took a few pictures that you can view on our photos site: http://www.kodakgallery.com/hughesweek/foster

We are so proud of you, Sam. What an awesome accomplishment! Can't wait to cheer you on at Grandma's next June.
