LIBERATION DAY MILE BACK ON TRACK

80 runners sprint down Marine Corps Drive

Braving a morning sun and BBQ smoke, 80 runners participated in this year’s GRC Liberation Day Mile. The course started near the Anigua 76 Gas Station and finished in front of the Chamorro Village.

The adults and kids enjoyed the solitude of running on Marine Corps Drive without any traffic. They were motivated by the cheers of the family groups along the parade course.

It was a great start to the 2022 Liberation Day Parade! Biba Guahan!

QUICK HITS

Guam’s Wayne Blas completed his 13th Boston Marathon and 38th marathon overall.
The island’s record holder in the distance, Blas finished this year in 2:35:21.
“I’m very happy with this result because seven months ago, I was sidelined with a stress fracture that kept me out for three months. No running! To come back on an abbreviated marathon build and finish one of the toughest races strong and healthy was a big win for me.”
His time of 2:29:38 at the 2023 Chicago Marathon and World Marathon Majors Age Group Championships stands as the Guam National Record.
