I am a MAMA runner living in Galveston Texas and
wanted to send you my I met Scott last year during the MAMA series. I am a 100 miler
runner, I remember well during the Rocky Racoon 100 mile race in February, coming
in I had the chance at the Hog's Hunt race in April to talk to Scott at
length I am leaving work now to put my nightly miles in and I will run for
Scott. I have the rolling pin that Scott designed for rubbing muscles. If
you Kim Sergeant -top-
condolences and to have you know that Scott and all of
you are in my
thoughts and prayers.
having completed 13 100's to date. I didn't know who Scott was at
first,
only that he was fast (I am slow). I got to know Scott more as the
summer
series progressed and I saw him at the Texas races later in the
season.
to the 174 aid station and Scott was there taking pictures and
helping
everyone. It was a miserable day for crewing. I heard later that he
paced
another woman runner from Massachusetts - it was her first 100 mile
race. I
know from my own experience that Ruth and Scott must have bonded in a
way
that few others do in that time they were on the trail. I'll never
forget
my first pacer and the experience. Since then, Ruth has run extremely
well
and I am certain that Scott's generosity of time and extreme talent
will
never be forgotten by her.
and was "wowed" by the talent of this young man (I can say that,
because I
am 42). I had no idea that he was a Naval academy grad and nor of
all that
he had accomplished at such a young age. I knew, talking to him
then, that
he was a very special, talented and giving individual.
MAMA will have a run on August 19th, which I know, all of us will run
with
and for Scott. You see, I believe that the trails in heaven are waiting
for
us all.
don't have one and would like to have one as a keep sake, please let me
know
and I will send you mine. Again, my thoughts and prayers are with you
and
your entire family.
