Miami and Homeward Bound

As we get into port the Miami marathon is going on. January 28, 2007 2007 ING Miami Marathon. More than 9,100 runners competed in the fifth annual race, which attracted runners from all over the globe. Ethiopian runner Teshome Gelana won the men's marathon in 2:17:54 and Ramila Burangulova, of Russia, won the women's race in 2:40:25. A group of more than 50 disabled athletes that included military personnel recently injured in Iraq led out the ING Miami Marathon Sunday morning. We watched this as we sat in the Harbor awaiting the divers to search the bottom of the boat for any illegal stuff. The myriad of runners passed our ship for a good 30 minutes. Leaving the Cay with temperatures at 88 arriving Miami with temperatures at 74 then onto Pittsburgh with temperatures at 11…Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
