Two years ago when I was first asked to join the “run little run” team to be honest I just laughed, I am no way a runner but when my then nine-year-old son Kyle said he would like to join me I was inspired to give my all. On May 15, 2011 Kyle and I completed our third half marathon at the Cellcom Green Bay Marathon.
Although the entire course is beautiful, yet extremely windy that day, the final mile is the most exciting and not just because you are almost to the finish line. Once you hit the final mile you are led onto Lambeau Field, yes right on the field where the Super Bowl Champions the Green Bay Packers play their home games. It is such an amazing experience to feel how large the field actually is and to hear the cheers of the crowd as you exit the tunnel to finish line.
This was our second time running the Green Bay Marathon and I must say that although we do not have many races to compare this one to it was the one that inspired me to continue running and be sure it would not be my last.
