Jeanne handing out gummy bears and Swedish fish to runners at Mile 22. She was a better saleswoman than me, and ran out of candy before me. I, meanwhile, kept eating the gummy bears instead of giving them to runners ...
You and Jeanne are so good to have done that. I know how much it's appreciated. One of my favorite marathon moments was when a little girl, still dressed in her Sunday best, gave out orange wedges in front of her home after we'd climbed "Lee's Revenge" at Mile 20 of the old Richmond Marathon course. Thank you both on behalf of ravenous, glycogen-depleted runners everywhere.
