It's kind of impossible to be around Boston Marathoners for 4 days and not be inspired. I could feel the energy this weekend. And I'm pretty sure it wasn't the surplus of Gu and Powerbars. It's just something at the core of marathoners. They're disciplined, motivated, passionate, healthy. All such worthy goals to pursue and all such great reasons to train.
And then to be standing out there at the finish line today...
To share in the pride of Brian Sell's parents' neighbors who came out for the race...
To exclaim to a stranger that your friend just crossed the 10k mark...
To see a Team World Vision jersey on the jumbotron...
To cheer on Ryan Hall to the end...
Discipline, motivation, and passion are certainly involved. But I think it's the community of running, and cheering, that I like best of all.
Thanks for inspiring me.
