In Grueling Relay, Runners Carry The Burden On Behalf Of Veterans

EASTHAM, MA - MAY 5: Team Spencer's Megan Carroll cools off with a water bottle after running in mid-80 degree heat from Orleans to Eastham, MA during the 36-hour Ruck4HIT relay run through all 15 Cape Cod towns on May 5, 2018. Runners wore 20-30 pound rucksacks, symbolizing the burdens carried by troops and their families.
