Your Race Weekend Guide

Team World Vision Los Angeles,

Thank you. Thank you for saying yes. Thank you for training. Thank you for inspiring your friends and families to get involved with ending the global water crisis. After 18 or 26 weeks of training, race week is almost here! Because of your yes in the middle of an incredibly difficult year, there are kids all over the world whose entire life will be changed. When it comes to training for a half or full marathon, the race is really the victory lap. Let this weekend be a celebration of the sacrifice, the hard miles, the tears, and ultimately a celebration of the jerry cans being put down because of it. This weekend, the city of Los Angeles will encounter the ORANGE wave of world-changers as you take to the streets. We are so thankful for you!

Race weekend, here we come!

Thankful,


Kailey VanderBaan
