There are plenty of good reasons to run in a marathon, but a man from Brownsburg with local ties isn‘t running for his health, he‘s running for a 12-year-old girl.

Kory Coleman isn‘t just running one marathon either, he‘s running in three, and he just kicked off his three weekend tour in the Carmel Marathon. It‘s all part of his “Miles for Marli” campaign, that would send 12-year-old Marli Wilson to Disneyworld for the first time. Marli recently and unexpectedly lost her father, who was a friend of Kory.

Kory says he took his own daughter to Disneyworld and she called the experience “magical” He says that’s what led him to start the “Miles for Marli” campaign…
