Waiting at the Start Gate in Corral E

Today was the Eugene Marathon Day. The Half-Marathon Walkers were in the last corral to start...Corral E. The weather was perfect, the walking was awesome, the sidelines cheering and people watching was great as well.
This picture is of the team of walkers we have been training with since January. All finished with decent times.  
The extra photo is of a cute pair of dogs carried in a backpack along for the half-marathon walk.
