Friday Night SmackDown corespondent Megan Morant ran the Boston Marathon in a blistering 2:59:06 on a chilly Monday afternoon.
People ask me all the time why I run marathons. The two people hugging behind me sum it up perfectly. These moments are what life is all about. Working together to achieve something bigger than ourselves 🥹💪@bostonmarathon #BostonStrong pic.twitter.com/htLhKQIOBS

Morant is no stranger to the New England area, having worked as a broadcaster for the New England Patriots as well as a digital correspondent with the Big East basketball conference and Cape Cod Baseball League. Morant even had Sheamus accompany her in some pre-marathon training with some Heartbreak Hill sprints for “Celtic Warrior Workouts.”
Adulation for Morant’s incredible accomplishment poured in from across the WWE Universe, including from Natalya and Samantha Irvin.
To accomplish what you @MeganMorantWWE did yesterday takes another level of conditioning and discipline. To run the #BostonMarathon in under 3 hours means Megan averaged a 6:45 pace for the whole race. I’m so proud of you, Megan! Unreal. 🥹 https://t.co/6jBVjDiHnN
