Rather than wear No. 666, Kentucky high school athlete quits race

Kentucky cross-country athlete Codie Thacker was told at a recent meet she had to wear bib number 666. So, she decided not to race.

Thacker told local NBC affiliate LEX 18 she had trained for Saturday's race for months. But she could not bring herself to put on that number. She felt it put her relationship with God at risk.
