Run Ryan Run to Beijing

Everyone in our small town of Big Bear Lake, CA (pop. 6,000) is extremely proud and excited about one of our local boys competing in the Olympics this year. Ryan Hall was born and raised right here in Big Bear Lake and he'll be running in the marathon. Ryan is the fastest American-born marathoner EVER.

This team of climbers from Big Bear Lake made the trek to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro and unfurled a banner in support of Ryan...

It seemed as if the entire town turned out to send Ryan off to Beijing. Click here to view a video of Ryan training in Big Bear. God Speed and Good Luck Ryan!

I'm sure you must be very proud of Ryan. I pray that he, and all the others, manage to survive the atrocious air pollution in Beijing.
