Runners honor Beirut bombing victims

Posted

An ambitious group of runners were all pounding the pavement in honor of those lost in the Beirut bombings in 1993.

On Wednesday night, they stopped in Virginia Beach on their way from New Jersey to North Carolina.

They represent combat veterans and wounded warriors from Beirut.

Along the route, they're pausing for each of the 63 people lost in the bombing,

The run ends Saturday at the Beirut Memorial in Jacksonville with a wreath presentation.
