Niagara Falls Marathon - Race day

就在今天…Niagara Falls Marathon...

早上匆匆忙忙的起床、吃早餐…

Let's go to take the shuttle bus....

That's right, we took the school bus to the start line.
haha it's really interesting, school bus is new to me!

This is my partner - Sean Feng.
(oil lips?   That's Vaseline lar)

In this bus, only two us are from Asia, the others are western people.
So exciting me.

It took around 15mins driving to reach the start line.
That's located at upriver of Niagara Falls.

 Many people are waiting for the time and it's cold at 9am on Sunday.

What's a beautiful view.

Sean left his clothes on the baggage bus.

Yes, I really did this when I was running.
I know I'm not good and fast runner, but I have passion, and I'm from Taiwan!!

All people were waiting for starting time at 10:00am.

這地方是upriver of Niagara Falls 瀑布的上流…

一般遊客應該也很少到這邊來，難得有機會透過馬拉松來到這邊…

這邊的風景真的是太清靜了!!  

住在這旁邊的人跟本就是個享受啊~~~

 基本上，整個路況非常的好，很平坦…又寬敞…

延路這種風景…跑步變成一種享受…

不過，還是跑得很累啊~~ 哈哈哈

至於國外的加油團…好少哦…少得可憐…讓我有點傷心…

加油的人並不多…很多都是學生…young 

可見這真的是一個小型的馬拉松…

and the NO.1 of full marathon just passed me when it's 2 hours 18mins passed.

Oh my god @@

did you see the destination from the photo? 

That's where we go!  

目的地是瀑布！！！　　超遠的！！

After 2 hours and 10 mins....

It's almost there.

we run with a rainbow!!!

it's almost close!!

In last 200m, I tried to run my best to get better record. haha
so no time for taking the pictures.

 Yeah, I did it in 2 hours 25mins.

Okay, Let's see whole Niagara Falls.
How big is it!

I have to take 3 photos and connect them together to become a big photo.



by the way, another partner - Bruce Lai, can't join us this marathon.
But his soul was with us. I know that.

and Sean finished his half marathon in 2hrs07mins (around).

Good Job!

Anyway, it's my first marathon in Canada.

it's not a big one, but i like it. Because of beautiful views around us.

What can we say??

I saw many women attended this marathon were more than men.

很多家庭成員中，是媽媽參加馬拉松，而爸爸帶著小孩給媽媽加油。

也有爸爸媽媽騎著單車，延途趕在自己的女兒前面幫女兒全程做紀錄拍照。。。真有心

有不少日本跑者特來這邊跑馬拉松…且起跑前他們會團體做操熱身…

再說，我個人覺得日本跑者真的是穩紮穩打型的跑者，他們可以不求快，但速度一定持久不休息。
