It took SRC club member Peter Kline until the age of 53 before he finally ran his first marathon. In no time he was thinking of ways to allow a disabled person to complete that distance as well, and born from that idea is Marathons with Meaning.
On Nov 15 and 16, Peter headed down to Las Vegas and completed his first Marathons with Meaning Ultra 100, which was 100 miles in 24 hours. He pushed a series of disabled children on a track for the first 74 miles and then ran the Las Vegas Marathon, completing 102 miles in those 24 hours.
Next up for our esteemed club member: of course, the Seattle Marathon on November 30th. If you’d like to see more about Peter’s charity and possibly learn how you too can get involved, please visit MarathonsWithMeaning.com.
Also be sure to check out the great feature Brooks Running did on Peter’s Las Vegas 102 miler.
Thank you Peter for all you do!
(And if that’s not enough for you, Peter also selflessly hosts our annual Fat Glass 50k. The man does it all!)
