The event was a success, with several students, athletes, and faculty of Stetson in attendance. Randy Nails Jr., a dear friend of Nick, gave a welcome speech expressing special thanks to the participants on behalf of Smiling Hearts and led the runners in prayer just before the run. "Everything turned out great, and to see all of those faces - and all of the support again - reminds us of what we already know. That Nick made the greatest impact on this community." A bonus, following the run, the Stetson Hatters football team won their final game of the season versus Valparaiso 45-31!
