Morty's Story
I mean, really, look at that face! |
Piggybacking on this post now, I am still running Newport this weekend. I couldn't really get myself amped for this marathon, not the way I was for Louisiana, so I decided to give myself a reason to run. Since this is number four, I'm dedicating this one to all the people who helped me out with training. Really number four has nothing to do with it. But number one, MCM, was to do something new. Philly was because we were still riding the runner's high and wanted to be maniacs. Louisiana was for fun and to do one on my own. So Boston is for Morty, of course. So, Newport is for everyone else. The people, if you will. Everyone who ran with me, talked to me, listened to me whine about how much I didn't want to do it. The list, while seemingly endless, actually isn't that long. But instead of writing a dedication list here, I'm doing it the creative way. On the bottom of my shoes. Yup. One name for every mile. Of course Ryan leads the list, because he's my number one fan, even when he's not. But the other 25 miles are for everyone else. And just to have a little fun, I switched up my shirt again. Newport, I am ready for you!
Ok, you can't read that,here's the list:
Right Shoe: Ryan, Cynthia, Murdock, Madilyn, Holly, Tracy, Jenna, Danielle, Nala, Stella, Kenny, Mom, Gibbs Family
Left shoe: Title Boxing (the club, the members, and the trainers!), Kerri, Dana, Erin, Matt D (for offering his treadmill after the kids went to sleep), the Revolutionary War Soldiers (for getting me through a training run on the Battle Road Trail one day), the Mystics from the relay team, Lynn Woods Running, Lynn Classical Girls Spring Track Team, Donna, Cortney, Brian, and finally, Alex F.
