Runners tie knot during Dallas marathon
12/12/2005

The White Rock Marathon turned into a wedding for two Dallas-area runners.

Ken Ashby and Linda Kelley were in their running gear when they tied the knot yesterday just past Mile 19.

About 40 other friends -- mainly runners -- were on hand for the ten-minute ceremony along the route that rings White Rock Lake.

Minister and runner Tim Epting officiated.

Ashby ran the first part of the marathon, stopped to get married, then he was joined in the final seven-point-two miles by his veil-wearing bride.

The finish line served a the threshold for the newlyweds, as Ashby picked up Kelley and dashed across to end their ... run for love.
