I know some of you may already have seen this posted on Jim's blog, but I wanted to share it here too. I know a lot of people don't want to spend the time to watch someone else's video - and this one is 15 minutes which is pretty long - but it's really awesome - and not because it's about me!! It's just awesome because my wonderful husband spent so much time editing it, putting just the right clips, pics, and music together. I've heard from several people it might make you a little teary eyed.
It was such a wonderful and special day and it's so great to have these memories captured here forever! There could be some embarrassing dance moves and some morning hair on here - but it was worth it to have this day put on video.
Oh, I forgot to include the You Tube link before so here it is if you want to watch it in a little larger screen. Thanks everyone for watching and the amazing comments!! Seriously it means alot to me that something like this might also mean something to someone else.
Finally got a chance to watch the entire thing. Who is that annoying voice that uttered the words "your almost there" at mile 17? Seriously? ha ha jk this is an amazing video and I am so jealous that you have it.
ReplyDeleteVery very cool to watch your special day.
I watched this when Jim posted it... amazing!
ReplyDeleteLove this!!
ReplyDeleteI personally love videos, so thanks for sharing it! Very cool to get the live and in person version of someone's marathon.
ReplyDeleteyou guys are the CUTEST....if I could just get Colin to run again I know we'd be the same :) I love that you wanted to fuel with mcdonalds....that's my food of choice too. lol
ReplyDeleteI'm going to keep watching
ok so Logan and I just watched the rest and not gonna lie - I cried my eyes out (just like I did in spirit of the marathon) you rocked it girl and your and Jim's love and support for one another is admirable :)
ReplyDeleteOh and little Logan gave you a "YAY!!!" with some clapping lol
This is just incredible! There is nothing like watching someone finish their first marathon. Yes, I am sitting at my desk with tears in my eyes. You will always treasure that day, and this video will capture those feelings always.
ReplyDeleteI loved that video. It made me cry.
ReplyDeleteAnd it made me want to do a marathon.
I won't lie. I started watching and thought "Oh, I'm not gonna' watch fourteen minutes of this!"
ReplyDeleteI watched every second. I love the video. I wish we all had videos like that of our races!
Two last things. Cherish that video and who made it possible. And he's completely right, no matter what happens, no one can take the title of "marathoner" away from you.
P.S. McD's? Really?
I agree with Deb...it made me cry and made me want to do it!
ReplyDeleteYou guys are so cute and I'm so very proud of you! You did awesome!
I loved the end when you said "I ran a marathon."
AWESOME!
I watched on Jim's blog and I LOVE it. You are lucky to have this!
ReplyDeleteoh and I did not lie on my blog..getting a call from the nurse WILL lead to faster miles. :)
I got goosebumps watching this! And even teared up a little when you were about to cross the finish line :) That is amazing, you will be able to cherish that day forever.
ReplyDeleteI watched when Jim posted it. I think I need to start the pre-race dance party to shake out my nerves. Congrats again!!
ReplyDeleteI am backed up on my blog reading. This is the first time seeing the video. What a great video this is! The picture of you guys crossing the finish line gave me the chills! You guys are awesome! Congrats again on becoming a marathoner!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Michael!!!!! Wow, Jim did an awesome job on this video. You'll never forget your first marathon!
ReplyDeleteI seriously became a teary mess watching this video!!!! I think for 2 reasons:
ReplyDelete1) Disney was my first marathon. 'Nuff said!
2) My husband ran alongside me, encouraging me the whole way, and we too finished hand-in-hand.
How lucky are we that we, as individuals and as couples, get to do such cool stuff???!!!!
Well done!
Ha, "put that in your video and smoke it!" I love it! Congrats again, Michael! It's a great accomplishment and an awesome video.
ReplyDeleteYes. I cried. :) You and Jim and that pony tail of yours had one memorable day!! I loved it~
