Overall Place: 549/1564

This was at Shea Stadium and there is only next year's race remaining before it will be torn down to accomodate (probably become parking) for the new one. How sad for Mets fans. Here is a picture of the finish line, which was at home plate:

The woman who took the picture is someone who was carrying a camera whose picture Wendy offered to take. In return, she forwarded pictures of the stadium and a picture she took of us as well:

These pictures were taken after the run and the woman's arms were shaking as though she had muscular dystrophy. So you can see that the pictures are a little blurry. My stomach murmured in guilt during the five seconds it took for her to steady the camera enough to take a picture. It was very kind of her. Why do my feelings concentrate in the stomach?
