I participated in each events with my new friend, my "brother", my inspiration, my mentor, Matt Sours. As Kyle told you, my name is Ricardo Aranda and I am now a two-time KPeasey athlete. I'm honored to be given the opportunity to share Kyle's blog space with him and with Matt. Monuments such as the Washington Monument, Jefferson Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Vietnam Memorials and of course the Iwo Jima Memorial, which sits in the distance at the start of this incredible athletic event. We look forward to the opportunity of running by some of the biggest monuments with some of the most historical importance in our country's long and incredible history. This week is all about raising awareness to the people of the United States and to share the message of what the Kyle Pease Foundation is all about.
We are strong, we are courageous and as a Nation, we are better together than we are apart.Īs our athletes run and roll through the Nation's capital it is important to reflect on these thoughts and ideals.
Inclusion of people from other countries, inclusion of our ancestors, inclusion of the strong and the weak, inclusion of those different from ourselves and of course, inclusion of those with challenges. We are a country that was built on inclusion. On the week leading up to America's most prestigious race, The Marine Corps Marathon, I can't help but be reminded of what inclusion is all about.
