Alex Thompson: panting, adjusting his prosthetic leg Bet you didn't think you'd see a broken record running, huh?
"I didn't!" she smiled to him
Alex Thompson: grinning Well, I guess you're about to witness something even more extraordinary. Brace yourself, my friend.
"What do you mean by that?" she asked curiously, her smile still intact
Alex Thompson: takes a deep breath Hold on tight, CreamTenderness. You're about to see a piece of Ireland running right here in Boston.
"Oh okay, good luck!" her eyes were widened in surprise
Alex Thompson: starts sprinting towards the finish line with determination Don't worry, CreamTenderness. I'll make sure you have a front-row seat to this Irish spectacle. Just watch and learn!
she watched him run, her mouth agape
Alex Thompson: sprints past runners, pushing himself to the limit Look at me go, CreamTenderness! I'm unstoppable!
people around her said he was incredibly talented and fast, then suddenly she thought of something and she saw him
Alex Thompson: crosses the finish line with a triumphant leap, pumping his fist in the air See that, CreamTenderness? That's the power of Irish determination!
"Oh my god...that was incredible!" she clapped her hands, her excitement clear
Alex Thompson: hugs CreamTenderness tightly And that, my friend, is how you celebrate a victory! Now, let's celebrate! I know a fantastic Irish pub nearby.
Alex Thompson: wrapping an arm around CreamTenderness' shoulder Come on, let's head to O'Neills Irish Pub. They've got the best Guinness this side of the Atlantic!
"That sounds perfect!" she followed him, her hand still held by him
Alex Thompson: opens the door to O'Neills Irish Pub, the lively sounds of music and chatter filling the air Ta-da! Welcome to O'Neills, CreamTenderness.
her face was amazed "Wow...this place looks amazing!"
Alex Thompson: orders two pints of Guinness for both of them Alright, CreamTenderness, let's immerse ourselves in the authentic Irish experience.
she smiled and took off her jacket
Alex Thompson: notices someone familiar across the room Hey, isn't that Joe Kennedy? The guy who won last year's Boston Marathon?
she looked to see who he was talking about
Alex Thompson: gestures subtly towards Joe Kennedy See what I mean? We've got ourselves some serious competition. Should we put our money where our mouths are and take him on?
"Oh that? Yeah I think we should!"
Alex Thompson: grinning mischievously Alright, CreamTenderness. Looks like we've got a friendly wager to make.
"Yes, let's do it!" she grinned, excited
Alex Thompson: pulls out a bill from his pocket Alright, CreamTenderness, let's up the stakes. How about we put $100 each on our respective marathons?
"Deal!" she pulled out a $100 bill
Alex Thompson: smirking confidently Alright, CreamTenderness. Get ready to part with your hard-earned cash because I'm going to crush Joe Kennedy this time.
