A brief update:
Our runner, Gerardo, was released from the Hospital on Tuesday. Come to find out he had a history with stomach virus' and bleeding, but he is doing ok. Please keep him in your prayers. He has been humbled and is really open.
Tomorrow, this Saturday will be out Banquet. This is will be a great celebration. I'm very proud of all the runners, what they've accomplished - and like one of the parents, Jorge Orellana, said best, "This relates to all of life! Now we need to help the students set goals for the marathon of life - and they can do, because they did this!"
This is ruben, whose father passed away earlier this year. He did great. This is him at mile 18. He has been a warrior. It was a very meaningful time seeing his peers support and surround him.

This is Julio - one of our Most Improved! He used to sprint and fade-out - here he is on his last Half mile, and he finished in under 4 hrs - a great accomplishment and his first marathon!
Matt, one of our mentors, at mile 18. He made a huge contribution - as an accomplished runner, who ran this marathon in 3hr. 12min - that is smoking! But he also shared his faith in a meaningful way, especially with Gerardo and gave him a huge boost through all of his difficulties.
