run it forward

dashed off to the santa monica pier at lunch on friday to greet the arrival of run it forward, a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing children's nutritional, health care and physical needs. eight top ultra-runners - including the two founders of coyote running, jimmy dean freeman and his wife kate - literally ran nonstop from chicago to los angeles via route 66 for 18 days straight.

i'm not sure how each of them were able to survive - the most i've ever ran is 14 miles, and i certainly wasn't ready to head right back out there - but it's a great charity, so the least i could do was lend them my support at the end of their road.

on my way back to the office, i took a few more snaps:
