Ran the Round the Island Run(Hawaii) with members of my Plt. Team effort rotating every 2 miles. may not have been the best but it was certainly the most fun. Started at approx. 2100 hrs finished at approx 1700 hrs. Beer never tasted so good as the pitcher we shared afterward.

I love those kind of finishes.

MSgt (Join to see) - Yep, started approx at 2030 hrs and team place 49th but have no idea how many teams ran. Still have the plaque. We ran 2 miles then switched runners from the support vehicle and the next guy ran the next 2 miles ect ect. The morning portion was the best as we experienced the sunrise. Injury toward the end to one of the runners so we had to run longer legs and enlisted the driver of support vehicle to run a few legs. He hated running but agreed. Team of 5 runners and the driver. The runners were all from my medical Plt. of the 25th Inf Div. The starts were staggered with the fastest teams starting earlier then approx every 15min. after the first team took off.
I've always wanted to do the Bataan Death March. Not sure if I have it in me. But, my heart says yes.

That is the organ you mees. Brain can be fooled easily the heart is a different animal.

PO2 Brian Rhodes - It is a march in memory of the actual event. Held at the White Sands missile range. And I believe it is a 26 mile (optional) ruck in honor of the 26 who died during the actual march. ...I may be somewhat inaccurate.
Our daughter finished the Marine Corps Marathon but you'd better be one of the first to enroll because it closes almost immediately.......................
