This morning we visited IMDET - Instituto Municipal del Deporte Tijuana where we were kindly greeted by Director Adalberto Sanchez Velasco, Delegada Municipal Otay Juana Sandoval Partida and Director of LIMAT President of the Runners League Ruben Rojo.

There were also children and adults of all ages who exercise and train in the facility to compete for all kind of races, from 5 k to marathons nationally and internationally. Sanmati, our local coordinator in Tijuana, explained to our audience about the Peace Run and how we run in relay passing the torch from person to person to bring the awareness that peace begins with each of us. She also explained that it will take us 4 months to run through North America.

While running around the track I met Jessie, he competes in races and truly inspires everyone he meets, since he teaches us there are no obstacles to be athletic. Thank you Jessie!
