The spirit moves them

Despite cold rain and strong wind, 5,000 runners competed in half and full marathons at Hampton Beach, NH, this past Sunday.

We waited at the finish line and watched the determined and exhausted accomplish their goals, be that to finish faster, finish stronger, or simply finish.
