At the beginning of last month Amber, Dara, Aaron, and myself (Mikey) hit the streets of Kosice to participate in the 85th Kosice Peace Marathon.  We ran the half-marathon, which is 21 KM or 13.1 miles.  It was a great experience as the city came alive cheering on the runners.  The team came out to cheer us on complete with signs they had made for each of us.  The route ran right in front of our apartment and ended where it began on Hlavna (Main St.).  We were definitely tired after that, but it was a great feeling to finish the race, especially as they put a medal around your neck as you cross the finish line.  Amber, Aaron, and myself are looking at running another one in Prague in the spring.
