A Tennessee woman searching for the stranger she kissed while running the Boston Marathon this year says she finally heard back — from the mystery man's wife.
Barbara Tatge says her daughter had dared her to kiss a random, good-looking man as she ran through the town of Wellesley, where the women of Wellesley College traditionally offer kisses to runners.
After the April 20 race, her daughter took to social media to try to find the man, who clearly left an impression on her mom.
Tatge says The Wellesley Townsman, a Boston-area news outlet, passed on a letter addressed to her Sunday after the campaign generated nationwide attention.
The unidentified man's wife said the attention was fun but that the couple wanted to remain anonymous.
"When this story aired on the news we were pretty surprised," the mystery man's wife wrote in a portion of the letter quoted by The Townsman. "For me, I'm not mad. Believe me, our friends have gotten a lot of mileage out of this story and I have thoroughly enjoyed watching them give my husband grief!"

My advice: stay far away from this woman and don’t reveal your names. She sounds like a stalker who is up to no good. I can see some cheesy TV whodunnit based on this story.

Such topics are no good without proper imagery from which to make a valid decision.

Quite right Sgt.Hooper. We have rules here. RULES! Evidence must be presented so a determination in this case can be made.

It doesn’t get much better WITH pictures, either.

Her figure is like that of running addicts. My hubby runs and competes occasionally. When I go to the runs I am struck by some of the men and women who look senewy and skeletal. Ick.
