So, I jumped on the treadmill this evening after I put the girls to bed and figured I'd be able to watch the Superbowl and do my long run (70 minutes - still in the slow group!).... I was plodding along and just found it bittersweet that I was running as a member of Team Stans and watching Bruce Springsteen on the halftime show..... I know Stans would have loved it, and he certainly would NOT have been on the treadmill during the Superbowl! I'm sure all of you, like myself, think of him everyday, and I just wanted to put it out there to everyone involved that we are doing a great thing to keep the memory of a wonderful man alive - way to go Team Stans making it through the first 4 weeks of training :-)
And on a personal note, I managed 5.12 miles - my farthest distance yet - so if Jim Kenny's wheelchair goes missing tomorrow, you all probably know who has it!

Good for you, Megan! Sometimes, it's hard to believe it's only been 4 weeks.
ReplyDeleteI too was thinking the same thing as I watched the half time show. Although I am not a particularly huge fan of Bruce Springsteen, I was really drawn to watch it. I had to laugh at what Stans was thinking about the whole "let me slide into the camera and give the world a major crotch shot" shot.
Megan! Just beautiful... I think we were all connected at that moment... all of us... feeling the love of our dear friend. Thanks for sharing. I was really touched by your post.
ReplyDeleteIt's only been 4 weeks of training? Not four months? OMG!
