Next to baseball, another passion of WSIU Radio contributor Pete Peterson is running.

If you’ve followed Pete’s commentaries over the years, you probably remember he ran the Pittsburgh Marathon at the age of 70 and the half marathon on multiple occasions.

In this commentary, Pete tells us about his latest running experience as a participant in the recent For Kids’ Sake Super Hero 5k and how a Carbondale Police officer played a role in the event.
