Any one know Judy Brenner? I saw the story below on MSNBC and the Boston Globe. Good for her...must be the clean living the Lakes Region offers.

WOLFEBORO, N.H. -- A shoplifter would have to run pretty far to get away from a 70-year-old state liquor store clerk in Wolfeboro, N.H.

A week after running the Boston Marathon, clerk Judy Brenner of Brookfield thought a customer was trying to lift some liquor. Brenner went after him, discovered he had a half-gallon of whiskey under his jacket and helped detain him until police arrived.

Brenner sprinted 100 feet to catch up with the teen on Thursday, then grabbed the bottle while others who joined in the chase grabbed the suspect, Curtis Smith, 18.

She said she has no problem running fast. Brenner said she ran 14 marathons decades ago, and finished the Boston Marathon this month in just over five hours.
