On Saturday, June 18, Saline marathon runner Don Brown participated in a half marathon which, with the temperatures nearing 100 degrees every day, was well-named–Hotter Than Hades.
The 13.1-mile run in Leland, Mississippi was a flat race through the beautiful farm land through the Mississippi Delta.
To help combat the heat, eight water stations were located along the race route.
Mr. Brown completed the race in 2.21.33 and got first place in the over 60 age group.
This Saturday, Mr. Brown will participate in the Trinity UMC 5K in Ruston.
Congratulations, Mr. Brown, on your Hotter Than Hades Win, and good luck at the Trinity UMC 5K!!!
