\r\n
\r\nCheryl Treworgy, Shalane's proud mother (and talented lady by many measures in her own right!) wished me to pass along these warm regards to you, Scott.
\r\n
\r\nKevin, can you please pass on my appreciation to Scott Bush for the insight and history he presented in his reporting of Shalane's race today. By putting her performance in perspective for all of us, we can more clearly appreciate her efforts. His willingness to point out that what drives her can force others to dig deeper too. And I am grateful he was able to do this reminding us that her drive deserves our respect and admiration.
\r\n
\r\nShe is my daughter and the criticisms of how she chooses to chase her dream hurt. There are so few who can stand in her shoes, so I guess we should allow them to pretend what they would do. That's where Scott's respectful comments helped me rise above and enjoy the pride we should all feel. Thank you, Scott.","date_added":"Sep 29th 2014, 2:06am","nest":0,"liked":false,"member":[],"can_delete":false,"item_id":285968,"item_type":"news","pb_image":"\/\/www.runnerspace.com\/forum\/uploads\/av-6.jpg","pb_title":"Kevin","pb_url":"profile.php?member_id=6","pb_url_dns":"https:\/\/kevin.runnerspace.com\/","pb_wally_id":"25"}},"last_id":"1131358","url":"comments.php?item_type=news&item_id=285968&item_url=profile.php?member_id=44418"}
