Instead of running the Boston Marathon this week, Tim Carey ran more than 200 laps up and down his block on Melrose Street.
CHICAGO (CBS — Marathons may be canceled, but that didn’t stop a Roscoe Village man from crossing the 26.2-mile finish line.
Instead of running the Boston Marathon this week, Tim Carey ran more than 200 laps up and down his block on Melrose Street. His family and neighbors hung signs and cheered from a distance to show their support. The Boston Marathon, canceled from its traditional Patriot’s Day start on Monday due to the coronavirus outbreak, is now scheduled for Sept. 14.
