What.

Pretty much the only thing I had to respect about Palin was that she ran a marathon. But now that the HuffPo reported this, I can go back to respecting absolutely nothing about her! Thanks guys!

Sarah Palin dropped out of a 5k race on Thanksgiving Day in Kennewick, Wash. The former vice presidential candidate and Alaska Governor quit the race because she wanted to avoid the crowds that were waiting for her at the end, according to The Tri-Cities Herald.

Palin was 1 of about 3,000 participants. The paper reported that her presence drew a "mass of onlookers." Palin announced that she would be running the race on Twitter.
