Athlete of the Month: Steve Mitchell

Pictured above is Steve Mitchell, who recently completed the Marine Corps Marathon in honor of his son. Here's what he had to say about it:

" 'Unleashing My Potential'

This photo was taken just under the bridge 300 yards from the hill to the Iwo Jima Memorial and the finish line.  26 miles under my shoes.  I finished in 5:50:41. 

Thanks to Jaime, Abby, Dr. Kevin Logel and the staff on site at APC I was able to complete this marathon in honor of my son, Captain Seth Mitchell, USMC.  Seth ran the MCM in 2001.  Seth was KIA in Afghanistan on 10/26/2009.  Seth had a steel determination to realize his dream of piloting a Cobra helicopter to support Marine ground troops. 

Through his will, the grace of God and the precise skills of the APC I was able to complete the 35th Marine Corp Marathon. 

Thank you all.

Respectfully and sincerely,

Steve Mitchell "
