I liked you have compared a writer's mind racing for a contest with a marathon runner trying to come first on the finishing line. An out-of-box thinking that deserved the win. The picture only accentuates the feeling while the alliterations raise the appreciation bar. The punch line adds a photo finish.

thank you so much. This was a great Potlach challenge. My first Acrostic and it is a type of poem I will try again. I have learned so much here.
Comment from Mary Wakeford
Lovely acrostic in presentation and content. The heart of a writer linked to the heart of a runner...great comparison. The bright green background with the chosen colored fonts seem to make the page pulsate as if a heart would for the run, or the write.

Interesting how poet compares writing to marathon and finish line.
Tone upbeat and inspirational. Plenty of alliterations add to rhythm of poem. Check me out also.

Comment from Dr. Nad
Morning Marathon is a marvelous little poem that tells each of us how you find your inspiration for writing. You cleverly intertwine the threat of writing creatively and the thread of running competitively. Your words are like the bark of the starter's pistol that signals to both runners and spectators alike that the race is underway. Thank you for sharing. May God bless you!

jusylee72,
This is an outstanding entry for the acrostic contest.
I like your lines: "Racing thoughts invite me..."
That's a great match for your photo choice too
along with your last line: "Told until I pass the
finish line"
You also have very alliterated "C" line...jammed
with contrary words. Interesting and true.
Well done,
Linda

You have done very well with this acrostic poem. Each line is meaningful and descriptive as it describes the sounds, activities and experiences of this event. You have captured the excitement in words.

I have had several of these days where I am either reading , writing or reviewing. Some days all three. I guess that counts as a marathon. Well written.

Congratulations on the prompt win! I like the 'C' alliteration in the next to last line. Great acrostic form.
