When my dad passed away in 2012 in Guam, I ran a race about a week later. It was the Guam Running Club 10-Mile Cross Island Race and I dedicated it to my dad. It was a tough and hilly course, and I ran against one of the top Master Division runners. I eventually won the division. Fast forward almost 12 years later: The morning after my mom’s internment in Guam, I ran the Guam Running Club Tumon Beach Race and dedicated it to my mom. It was a challenging course of mostly sand, rocks, and coral. There was even a very short part of the course that had us run though knee deep water along the beach. The hills at the halfway point added to the physical and mental challenge. When I crossed the finish line, I was 10th overall out of over 100, and won the Senior Division. » » » » » The chorus of the Chamorro song by JD Crutch is translated to say, “Our mother here on earth, thank you for all that you've done.
