Ben trained hundreds of runners to successfully complete their first marathon.

We want to see Moore's Marines Graduates wear their shirts to be eligible for special awards. Proceeds from the race will go to the Anne Arundel County Auxiliary Police who Ben was a part of for many years, Chesapeake Hospice House who provided compassion and support for Ben and his wife, Betty; the Wounded Warrior Project for whom Ben was a kindred spirit, and Rude Ranch Animal Rescue. A new beneficiary this year will be the METAvivor organization for Stage 4 Breast Cancer awareness. JOIN US to Honor Ben and support these worthy causes.
