It was a privilege to serve as Race Director for the Soldier Marathon. Such a great group of friends and runners on the Race Committee. Such great memories. Wonderful support by Fort Benning, Columbus and Phenix City communities. Wonderful people running the race and in honor of loved ones and those who served us well. The race will be missed however it was time to retire the race. Everything has a season.
