The Medal

November 6, 2009 1:34 PM

The Fort Worth Marathon has such a special place in my heart. Not only do I support their cause (preventing childhood obesity thru after school running programs) but that medal is the one that my Mom is holding when we buried her. My mom was a runner and when she was diagnosed with Lou Gehrigs, I completely fell apart. My friends would drag me out to run so that they could check on me and try and give me an hour or two to clear my head. Before long, they had me running 5K, 10K, 20K and then a half marathon. My mom was so proud of me for overcoming my disdain for running that I kept running-for her. Running 26.2 miles is significant, but for me it is about still wanting to make my mom proud of me...
