Pictures of people running are always great.  They always seems to catch people in the strangest positions and with funny expressions.

I was down there, cheering on my wife.  Good times were had.  It was hot as Hades and muggy as can be.  The band was bearable and as always, it was a great atmosphere amongst the runners and supporters.

Good times and good pics!

^ They've been holding "summer in the city" runs for several years now. This seems like the same general thing. Sometimes they went over the bridges, sometimes they didn't.
