We humbly request Spencer the dog to cheer us on at all future events

Running a marathon in bad weather conditions? You could use a little support from Spencer.

Competitors faced terrible weather at the Boston Marathon on Monday, with freezing rains and wind making for a tricky day.

One consolation? Spencer the dog, who was rugged up in a rain jacket and waving a flag on the side of the road as runners raced by. What a champion.

Apparently Spencer has been cheering on runners for three years in a row, according to ABC News. 

As you do these days, Spencer has a Facebook page where you can see all that practice work. OK, but can we get Spencer AND Penny to cheer us on in future, please?
