A highlight of the Historic Half every year is seeing the Marines in formation bringing in the final finisher. This year, the Marines
sprinted from the finish
onto the course to meet Notah Begay Jr., 77, of Albuquerque, N.M., surrounding him and cheering him through the finish. Begay participated in the event as a tribute to his father—a World War II code talker—and to his son, who had completed two tours of duty in Iraq as a Marine.
