OC MARATHON 2019
This year Team John Wayne and the John Wayne Cancer Foundation had one of the most incredible OC Marathon’s to date! We are grateful for the fundraisers, donors, sponsors, and volunteers. Together we raised over $94,000 to help cancer patients beat the odds. Special thanks to Team Tom for being JWCF’s top fundraising team to date, in honor of their dad Tom, and to celebrate his 20th anniversary of fighting cancer with grit. The Mile 10 Water Station (aka John Wayne Waterin’ Hole) was bigger, brighter and louder while the Finish Line Tent hosted some great post-race snacks, refreshments, lounging and photo-taking opportunities. Thank you to our new sponsor MWS Executive Coaching for the Courage Reception and for the returning sponsors: Orangetheory Fitness, Rutan & Tucker and Vivante Living with a special shout out to Kohl’s and Trader Joe’s for their continued assistance and support. We would also like to thank all the volunteers who arrived before the sun came up to make the Waterin’ Hole the most energetic and lively it’s ever been. A sincere thank you goes to all those who donated, fundraised and participated in this year’s 5K, half marathon or full marathon. Together we will continue the fight against cancer with GRIT and ultimately, we will win! We are looking forward to the 2020 OC Marathon. Let’s make 2020 the year we end cancer.
