Mark. Set. Go.


This Saturday is the St. George Marathon. It is the marathon Mark ran two years ago, just weeks before being diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma. As a way to remember him and to raise money for the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation, a number of Mark's neighbors and friends are running the marathon. They'll be wearing t-shirts with Mark's picture from his marathon and the words "Mark. Set. Go." and the foundation's logo (see left). Kelley and others from her family will be going down to watch the race and meet the runners.

There's an article about it in today's Deseret News. You can read about it by clicking here.
