10K Run for Hunger – Finished!
Aug 5, 2010
Today we held the first-ever Koinonia 10K Run for Hunger! All our registration fees went towards supporting World Vision’s 30-Hour Famine, a program to raise awareness and money to fight world hunger.
Waking up bright and early, two groups started at 6:20am and 7am to run along Alameda’s beautiful beach. Everyone ran their hearts out! It was a wonderful time of fellowshipping through small physical suffering for a good cause. Hopefully the 10K will encourage all of us to pursue greater physical and spiritual discipline!
Here are some great pics and videos documenting the pre- and post-race scene! Wow, it was such an EPIC race! See you at next year’s Run for Hunger!

It was so fun, and we didn’t die! Yay!
it was fun to run in such a large group of people! i’d definitely do it again (but not for a while!!)
yes.. it’s quite unbelievable that I actually finished the 10k and am alive right now. I’m really just in a state of shock right now.
congrats everyone! i am now just very sore all over…
yay for running hard! yay for fellowship! congrats to everyone.
Hard to believe it’s actually over now, after looming on the horizon all summer.
Haha Very well done!
At least everyone looks like they’re still alive!!
Hahaha–Wilson’s classic double-finger-point. Congrats, everyone! So sad I missed it…
we made it! it was awesome seeing everyone cross the finish line. we should do this every year!
woohooo!! thank you, nathan, who gave us gatorade to drink. i would have passed out without it.
man that was so fun running it together. It’s so much better when others are suffering alongside you =). It was a unique experience of being energized watching others push through physical and mental fatigue. good job everyone!
check out the new video!!
Wow, I don’t recall it being so epic =)
wow awesome video! it made the race seem really intense (which it was)
