Not just a run: Grand Forks AFB Airman goes the extra mile

Great job SSgt Brustad running 22 miles/day to raise awareness for veteran suicides. #4OurVets

GRAND FORKS AIR FORCE BASE, N.D. --
Tomorrow, June 25, 2016, he leaves for Canada. Staff Sgt. Brendan Brustad, 319th Air Base Wing executive, is on day 25 of 30 running at least 22 miles a day to bring awareness to those veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. The number 22 represents the number of veteran suicides that occur each day. Running more than 650 miles in only 30 days is a daunting task, but it took Brustad a lot of planning and coordination to make his dream a reality.
