Today is the Sea Girt 5K. It is one of my favorite summer road races. Last summer it was a COVID-19 casualty. This year, it is back.
Truth be told, it is more than just a great, small-town race. It is a great event. A labor of love for those who put it on. This year promises to be no exception. The Honorary Race Marshal is Sam Jarmer. Sam is a young man who was just sixteen years old when he suffered a terrible spinal cord injury on July 24, 2019 while working as a lifeguard in Ocean Grove. It paralyzed him from the chest down. Two years later, he is fighting his way back. He is SAMvincible indeed.
