    Why I do the Bellin Run: Bart Kreuser, Green Bay

    I have been doing the Bellin for the last three years with my daughter who this year will be 11 years old. After the first Bellin we did, I promised her I would do it every year until I can’t walk any more. On March 11, 2013 I had my right hip replaced, but even so, I will be there with my daughter…

    Why I Run the Bellin Run: Cheryl Corbeille, Black Creek

    I ran my first Bellin Run in 1980 when I was in high school at the encouragement of my Southwest High School cross country coach, Dave Moore (he has never missed a Bellin Run, ever). In 1982 I placed third in my age group (under my maiden name, Douglass). I have run a variety of races since then but…

    Why I Run the Bellin Run: Jessica Terrien, Denmark

    My dad was diagnosed with terminal, stage IV cancer on his 65th birthday in June of 2009. I watched him go through weekly chemo and radiation treatments for months; always walking in under his own power, even when he barely had strength to get out of bed. He lost his fight seven short months later, in…

    This year is my first year walking in the Bellin Run and I am so excited! About 15 years ago I began to experience health issues and ended up having surgeries that limited what I could do. I even had to have my husband regularly help me up from my chair and eventually I had to stop working. Being only…

    Why I Run the Bellin Run: Joann Will, Manitowoc

    Last year I never imagined that I would register for the Bellin Run as I weighed 259 lbs. This past mid-October I was kind of feeling in the dumps and needed to put something on my calendar to look forward to, so weight loss it was. The more time and energy I put in at the gym, the more I decided to…
