Couple Run Marathons in 50 States 50개 주에서 마라톤을 완주한 부부 Friends of Brad and Marla Rhoden gathered at Garry Gribble’s Running Sports store to 1celebrate the couple’s running 2accomplishments, much 3to their surprise. “I knew we were having a... it’s a Topeka to Auburn signup night for that race and we have a 4shoe rep here, a Brooks shoe rep here, so there’s a little extra going on but the turn out’s kind of 5overwhelming for us.” “And a lot of the folks who are here have been a part of our running group for years.” Marla ran her first marathon in ‘83, Brad in ‘87. A few years back, they decided to log a marathon in every state. “You hear about the 50 state clubs or whatever and we thought well, maybe we need to be doing that, we, we run marathons 6all the time.” Some people run, some do marathons but not everyone, especially couples, run marathons in all 50 states. They’ve crossed more than 100 marathon finish lines each over the years. “Especially with last year, with all the issues that came up. I had some health issues and the pandemic and being able to... I honestly didn’t know if I’d be able to do it, but it was, it was 7motivation to, to get out and keep going. So, the fact that we were able to do it means a lot.” “As we age, you know, it’s something we can look back on and be really proud of that we’ve done.” The two continue to run with their group and see new faces along the way. For anyone who wants to 8train for a marathon, they say it all starts with taking the first steps. “We get really excited, probably as, as excited as they are, when they are able to get through their training and complete it because it’s really 9contributed a lot to our lives so that see other people do that is, it’s really exciting.” 1 celebrate 축하하다 2 accomplishment 성취 3 to one’s surprise ~가 깜짝 놀라게 4 shoe rep 신발 수선 5 overwhelming 굉장한 6 all the time 항상 7 motivation 동기 부여 8 train 훈련하다, 연습하다 9 contribute 기여하다 Article from https://cnn.ybmnet.co.kr/cnn_class/2260
