There are many people who say that they would love to complete a marathon someday but few that actually have the dedication to follow through with the task. A marathon, or even a half-marathon, is a daunting task for most individuals, since it requires quite a bit of running and a lot of preparation and endurance. Fortunately, somebody like Marc Walker of Reno is more than set for such a task, as a former member of the US Marine Corps and an individual who works in law enforcement.

Running a half-marathon had been a dream of Marc Walker of Reno's for a very long time and he is pleased to have completed his first half-marathon on February 3, 2013 at the Surf City Marathon in Huntington Beach, California. This is a beautiful race and Marc Walker of Reno couldn't have been happier to complete his first race in such a wonderful setting.

"I don't typically like to sing my own praises, but I'm proud that I finally did it," Marc Walker of Reno admitted after completing the Surf City Marathon. "Not many people can say that they've completed a half-marathon and I'm more than thrilled to add my name to the list of individuals who have completed such a task!"

Mark Walker of Reno has been a fitness enthusiast for many years. He considers working out to be an important part of his duties as a law enforcement officer, as a healthy body is conducive to a healthy mind. He works hard to keep himself fit and the fact that he was able to complete a half-marathon in middle age is a testament to the amount of time and energy he puts into his body in order to keep himself fit and healthy.

"Everybody should give themselves the chance to do something like a half-marathon," Marc Walker of Reno advises. "It's a lot of work and time, but you feel great and you'll also feel very accomplished after you complete it! It might sound impossible, but it really isn't."
