Remembering Rosie Ruiz
Happy Anniversary Rosie! I give her credit. She cheated the old fashioned turtle and the hare sort of way. In comparison, it's more funny than sinister. I don't know any of the winners of the Boston Marathon, but I remember the story of a woman who came from the crowd (two weeks exactly before I was born) and made history by running a few blocks.
To all of us who are not good enough to compete but always wanted to taste athletic victory, Rosie is a misguided hero.
