After today's marathon experience, I'm pretty sure Marisa and I could make a new hobby of entering races wearing matching (or even not matching) outfits to get comments/responses of "Are you two twins?" and "Go twins!"
It's pretty funny that most people will tend to give us an extra thumbs up or the wow factor just because we look the same.
For this (and probably for this alone) I will probably never run another marathon without my sister. It sure is a lot more fun to turn heads, regardless of the outcome of the race, by running with my twin.
WE DID IT!
(P.S. My parents are the best - Despite some travel delays, they made it to the marathon to shuttle and cheer us on!)
"I have no idea where I am going; I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself...But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing. And I know that if I do this, you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always..." -Thomas Merton
I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...
you honestly cannot think of a better reason to run with me? :P hehe
