Tonight, Lisa Hallett will run an ultra marathon to honor her husband CPT John Hallett.
Starting at midnight she will start at the Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno and run 26.2 miles to the start of the San Francisco Marathon where she will run another 26.2 miles.
52.4 miles in honor of her husband CPT John Hallett.
Lisa’s courage, strength and powerful way to honor her husband is so inspiring to me.
Running was my way to cope with deployment and now I run to honor her, her husband and all our Fallen Soldiers and their families who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
Our Fallen Soldiers are not just a casualty number. They are husbands and wives, sons and daughters. They are mothers and fathers who will never get to hug or tuck their children in at night.

You don’t have to be part of the group to support them. All you have to do is want to remember and honor the Service and Sacrifice of the American Military.
This weekend, put on a blue shirt and run or walk any distance in honor of our heroes.
Fallen but not Forgotten
