Thank you to all who supported and participated in this event. This race was organized to honor the life of Maggie Elizabeth McLeod, and to reMEMber her. Maggie died on August 12, 2005 in a car accident at the age of 19. She was out saying her last good-byes before she was to start her next life chapter as a college student at the University of South Carolina.

Maggie's School was dedicated in July 2008, providing the first ever school for the Turkana people in the northern region of Kenya. Please check our photo gallery for pictures from the race. |
