While others run the 26.2-mile race for exercise or competition, Jameson runs to heal from the invisible wounds of his past. Since 1986, he has completed the Los Angeles Marathon 30 times—a remarkable feat that’s earned him the title of \"Legacy Runner.\" Training on his mail delivery route, the marathons are therapeutic for Jameson in coping with the traumatizing violence of war. ➡ Subscribe ➡ Get More Short Film Showcase About Short Film Showcase: The Short Film Showcase spotlights exceptional short videos created by filmmakers from around the web and selected by National Geographic editors.
