I ran that marathon this past weekend and it was very weird to have her start the race. I didn't like it. Marathoning and Martha Stewart - that combo just doesn't go.
At first I agreed with that sentiment, but the more I think about it, the more I think the sport could benefit from Ms. Stewart.
I mean, have you looked at most runners at races? Crappy looking outfits, horrible bathroom etiquette - in short, 99% of them could use an extreme makeover, and she's just the person to do it.
Martha and running - It's a good thing!
P.S. - One of the Westport Summer Series races goes past her old house, and I was always disappointed she wasn't out there on Saturday morning serving tasty and tasteful little refreshments as we ran by. NOT a good thing!
