New Mexico Diary: Colleen Wall

A grand sendoff from Isleta Casino officials led us down the escorted path toward Belen. Such excitement within all of us! Instant bonding with runners, drivers and the sheriff posse. The State Police. The Firemen. Applause, cheers and smiles from the roadside crowds, many holding candles, wishing us well on the run. Small town America joining us in celebration of America and Old Glory. Knowing that Americans stand proud and together in the tough times. And remembering the wise words of the former US President John F. Kennedy "I am certain that after the dust of centuries has passed over our cities, we, too, will be remembered not for victories or defeats in battle or in politics but for our contributions to the human spirit."
