«If someone is thinking of running the marathon, I would tell them the experience is incredibly amazing. To say that day changed my life would be an understatement. I will remember the feeling of running through the Chicago neighborhoods forever.» – Blas Bolivar, Team Race for ALS Alum, 2018 BOA Chicago Marathon
Blas Bolivar was not a runner. In fact, the longest distance he had run was a 5k. Running a marathon seemed out of the question. But according to Blas, «my desire to help the Les Turner ALS Foundation was so big, I was able to do it.»
