The phrase “There’s a first time for everything” is used regularly.  The phrase can be used to explain the mindset it takes for a person to embrace an experience never sought or a goal never attained before.  The words can be used to justify an act that one would rather forget.  It’s a phrase that means many things for many people, and even when it can mean nothing, it can mean absolutely everything.  The phrase alone was what brought April 10, 2016 and Fair Park to converge together for the Big D Marathon.  On second thought, the date and the location were going down no matter what.  The wild card was who would be participating given that the event was a first.
