Istanbul Marathon 2014
By mtschirg on Nov 18, 2015 in Turkey

This picture resonates deeply with my time abroad. I ran the Istanbul Marathon almost a year ago today and still feel a sense of excitement from the experience. The marathon is the only time of the year that one can cross the Bosphorus straight on foot, and it is the only marathon that crosses two continents, Europe and Asia. It was a pretty surreal moment when you are out on the Bosphorus bridge with tens of thousands of people and could actually feel the bridge swaying from the weight of all the people running.
