Chip and Jennifer pulled up to the starting area and parked. Several of the runners were jogging around the parking area loosening up. Jennifer started to jog around the parking lot. Chip held up his hand after a few minutes and Jennifer started to walk. Chip directed her to the starting area.
Jennifer checked in and came over to where chip was standing. He put his arms around her and kissed her. There were upwards of 15,000 people standing waiting for the race to start. The PA was blaring music from one of the radio station. People were jogging up and down the opening part of the course. The announcement calling all the runners to the starting area, momentarily cut the music.
He went over the instructions he and Jennifer had talked about on the trip from the town house to the start of the race. "Keep your pace at about seven minute miles. If anything hurts seek medical attention. Relax and have fun."
The first tier runners, had red numbers; they were expected to finish the course in two hours lined up first; everyone else behind them.
Chip broke the embrace and kissed his wife again and watched as she walked to the starting area. Someone on the PA system counted down and blew a gas horn sending the first tier runners down the course. After a ten-minute wait the horn sounded again and the rest of the field started.
Chip was in the car and followed the course on a parallel street. He parked at five miles from the starting line, He walked to the where people were watching and waited to see if he could see Jennifer. At about thirty-five minutes he observed her passing that point in the course. He started the timer function on his phone and got back in his car. He moved five miles further and waited. The timer beeped indicating that she should be coming by his location soon. He scanned the field and saw her still running strong. He shouted encouragement and walked back to his car.
He decided to move five-miles further down the course and found a good spot to watch the runners. Almost on schedule he saw Jennifer still running strong. She was with several members of the armed Services some Army a few Air Force and one or two Navy runners.
Chip moved back to his car and drove to the 20-mile mark. He knew that she had been running close to two and a half hours. Jennifer should be coming by at the two and a half-hour mark. The field had stretched out to a single line but they kept coming. Chip waited looking out to the field to catch a glimpse of his wife. The group of Military runners pulled into view and stuck solidly in the middle was Major Jennifer Connolly.
"Six miles to go, Major." He yelled.
Jennifer turned up the street that rose gently, but to the runners it felt like a mountain. Chip again got in his car and drove to the finishing area and found a parking spot. He opened the trunk and pulled a toy plastic bucket and several bottles of water. The bucket was just in case Jennifer felt like throwing up when she finished. He checked the contents of the cooler as he was going to take her to the cabin to come down. Chip waited at the reception area and watched as runner after runner crossed the finish line. Chip looked at the race timer and saw that she still on the course at the three-hour mark.
The race timer clicked over to 3:15:00 mark and runners kept streaming in. Chip saw some members of the military come through the finishing line. He was beginning to worry that something had happened. Jennifer should have crossed the finish line by now. At about a mile from the finish line the course took a left turn. The rise was greater than before and several runners were walking up the course.
Chip looked at the race timer and saw that thirty more minutes had passed; Jennifer was still not insight. At the three hour forty-five minute mark Jennifer pulled into view. She put a strong kick for the final mile and crossed at three hours and fifty minutes.
Jennifer stopped and bent over. Chip came up to her and got her upright and encouraged her to walk. He passed a bottle of water to her and encouraged her to take small sips. A race volunteer walked up to them with one of those "Space blankets." Chip wrapped her up in the silvery plastic and they walked into the convention center.
"I don't think I have the right, but I am so proud of you, darling," said Chip he kissed her.
Jennifer was silent as she continued to walk with chip's arm on her shoulder.
"Chip I need to stop and sit down," said Jennifer.
They found a chair and Jennifer sat down. Chip went to collect her time. A clerk handed him a slip of paper and a finisher's medal and he found Jennifer standing. She was breathing normally and was moving well. "When am I going to fuck you mister," said Jennifer as Chip drew close. Chip started to laugh. Chip kissed her and they walked out of the building and found his car. Chip pointed the car toward the highway leading to the cabin. "Chip you realize I have to work tomorrow."
"Darling, relax I called the Colonel and she agreed to let you come in at noon. We 're going to the cabin to splash in the cold water," said Chip.
Jennifer was about to speak when Chip looked at her and mouthed, "Silence"
Chip continued to drive and pulled up to the gate. He got out and opened the gate got back in the car and drove through. He was about to get out to lock the gate when Jennifer opened her door, got out and secured the gate. They continued to the house and parked in the front yard. Jennifer got out and opened the door. Chip followed her through the door carrying an ice chest.
Jennifer walked into the bedroom and started to strip her clothes off. She went to the bathroom and started to run the shower. She waited until she saw steam start to come off the shower stream and climbed in and let the hot water stream over her body. After soaping down and rinsing off she got out and toweled down. She reached into the cabinet and pulled out one of several terry robes.
She went to the bedroom and got on the bed and fell asleep. Chip was in the kitchen putting some of the provisions from the cooler. He heard the shower turn on and then off and the door open and close. When he finished Chip got on the couch in the living room and he also fell asleep.
During his nap Chip replayed the scene when Jennifer came over to his apartment the first time. He remembered that she took his cock in her mouth. As he dreamed his cock reacted by becoming hard. Their first fuck caused him to ejaculate and wake up. He quickly got in the shower and cleaned off his cum.
Jennifer was waiting for him when he came out of the bathroom. "Have a little accident, Darling,"
"I dream about you and I get horny, is it a federal crime," replied Chip.
"Well I can get rid of some of that hornyness," said Jennifer reaching into the robe and manipulating his cock.
Chip embraced his wife and they kissed. With a free hand Chip reciprocated by massaging Jennifer's pussy.
