SALINAS, Calif. (KION-TV) -- The Big Sur Marathon Foundation and the Monterey County Juvenile Detention Center have gotten together to create the inaugural 13.1-mile race called "The Hall Half."

Ten runners, named the "Concrete Steppers," will run 124 laps to complete the race.

Organizers say the mission is to inspire healthy lifestyles through memorable running experiences.

The event is taking place on Friday, July 25 at 8 a.m. at the Monterey County Juvenile Detention Center on 1420 Natividad Road in Salinas.

"With this opportunity, the Foundation aims to empower these participants with the tools and confidence to build healthier, safer, and more active lives," said the Big Sur Marathon Foundation.

I’ve been an international professional writer and performer for over 25 years. With a background in journalism, creative writing, dance and aerial, I find the intersection between all of these skills lands itself somewhere under the term “storytelling.”
