My dad (Rick Cole) and I have trained together through the training team and are running the marathon together this year. My dad ran it probably about 25 years ago (I can’t be sure how long ago it was), when it was put on by the Times Dispatch. He just retired this year after over 30 years of working in education (most recently as the principal of Powhatan High School). He’s now the PE coordinator for Powhatan County Schools.
