Yesterday, thousands of runners participated in the New York City Marathon. One couple, Mary and Raymond Donaldson, didn't just run the race together—they got married in the midst of it!

At mile 22, with an officiant running along with them, the couple exchanged vows and rings. Then, they finished the race together.

The couple met while running, so Mary says it only felt right to get married while running. Their families were even able to watch from the sidelines as they exchanged vows.
