Engaged during the NYC Marathon, Sunday November 6, 2005... running his third marathon there, Frankie proposed to Lordes on NBC at the 18 mile marker for the entire world to see. My favorite quote came from Frankie, saying this was the 'right' time and place to do this because there's no other place where one can be surrounded by so many people who's lives are consumed by so much dedication and committment. Wow.
