unning is one of the most basic types of exercise. It is a part of almost every popular sporting activity, but is it a family activity? For military families aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, the answer is yes. More than 60 patrons arrived early Saturday morning to participate in the Family Fun Run, hosted by Tarawa Terrace Community Center, aboard the MCB Camp Lejeune Tarawa Terrace housing area. The November chill didn’t intimidate the families of devoted runners, who donned long sleeves and leggings before they braved the cold. “We hold these monthly runs throughout the year, and we seem to have more participants on our coldest and hottest runs,” said Lorraine Fuller, a recreation specialist with Tarawa Terrace Community Center, a division of Marine Corps Community Services. “They must really like the challenge.” The monthly runs start in January with a onemile run and increases in distance every month. However, for those who do not want to run farther than one mile, the milelong challenge is always available. Photos by Pfc. Nik. S.
