The BMO Vancouver Marathon
Peter J Kletas was a champion as he crossed the finish line. Family and friends cheered him on and sported t-shirts to promote the Change 15,000 Lives Campaign. This was his first full marathon (42.2Km). Peter trained for about 4 months in all weather conditions in Calgary. If you have been following Peter's story, you know that he has a medical condition which requires him to drink a lot of water. Water is vital and without it we don't have life. Check out the picture I took of Peter and Benard, the winner of the Marathon! Peter knew he was going to win. Nice work guys!
