Last year my neighbors and I watched for Catnapper's son with no success - sometimes the runners are so bunched up it is hard to see all the bib numbers!
And Pet Talkers or family members running the Marathon this year?
It goes right by the end of our street, so I and the neighbor kids can yell extra loud encouragement to anyone we can spot! We are right before Newton City Hall, and the start of Heartbreak Hill, so we figure the extra encouragement might help - and it's fun to have someone to watch for. Otherwise we just yell for anyone that has his or her name painted on the shirt, and we yell for military folks, and anyone we can identify!
