Event: Long Beach Half-Marathon

Thirteen miles seems like a lot of running, and for many, the idea of jogging such a distance just seems absurd! That day came for my brother and four friends at the Long Beach Half-Marathon where they ran their first 13.1 miles!

A challenge they conquered, the exhilaration they felt after crossing the finish line with exhaustion, and a jubilant, "I DID IT!" screaming from within... I salute all of us who completed our runs, including two friends for their first 26.2-mile full-marathon! Thank you to our friends who came to support us!

I hope this post will inspire many of you to join us at the next race... View Slideshow.
