week 8: Action Shots: Hero Half

Runners young and old came out to support our local troops on May 23 by participating in a half marathon or a shorter trek around the grounds at Community Chapel in Sweet Home.

Runner Nikki Smith (runner 33), a service member himself (359th Inland Cargo Transfer Company) and an avid runner starts the hero’s half strong, supporting his fallen brethren.
"And they're off!" Hundreds started the race at 10 a.m., running under the hoisted American flag, to show support for the veterans around the globe, each racer donated money to take part to help support the Veteran foundation in Sweet Home.
