If it has wheels, Blake will race or ride it. And that’s just what he did this weekend, with his dad, Dan Lothian. Blake and his dad took part in a Boston Marathon tradition, The Midnight Ride. Blake and Dan, along with hundreds of other bike riders took off from the Boston Marathon start line in Hopkinton at midnight and biked the 26.2 mile Boston Marathon route, arriving at the finish line about 2 hours later. Blake’s dad is no stranger to the route and either was Blake. When Blake was much younger, the pair biked the route, but stopped at the halfway point which goes right past Blake’s home. This time they took the route all the way to the end. Blake’s dad, Dan has ran and finished the marathon twice. FUN FACT: Dan was the first reporter to ever run and report at the same time, for television, (WCVB-TV) from the Boston Marathon. He was using the first small cell phone prototype made by Motorola. That was the 100th running of the Boston Marathon in 1996. This weekend’s event was the 127th running of the marathon.
