The Carolina RailHawks recently participated in an afternoon of activities at Baucom Elementary School that celebrated a three-month program to promote healthy living and a healthy heart. The students had three months to complete 25 miles of walking or running. The RailHawks joined the over 500 students that completed the marathon to run the last mile. Upon completion, RailHawks players and staff handed out medals and signed autographs for the students.
