New York City Marathon, not so much for babies

Grandma was in town for the weekend and so we walked down to the corner to see the New York City Marathon make its way up fourth avenue. Our friends Melissa and Susan were both running, but somehow I missed them.
I was busy with a runny nose wondering what we were doing standing out in the cold watching people run down the street. We can do that in the summer and not get a cold. In my humble opinion, distance running is not the spectator sport of choice for babies.
