One of our own web department employees, Mike King, has been vigorously training and raising money for 6 months in preparation for a half marathon on behalf of the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA).

On Friday, Jan. 23, Mike finished this 13.1-mile run in 2 hours and 22 minutes, even bringing home a medal!

The run was held in Miami, Florida. Mike’s team raised a total $164,256, putting them in third place.  In total, the event brought in $1.6 million, all of which went directly to the CCFA.

Everyone here at Basement Systems is proud that a member of our team worked so hard for an important cause.  Congratulations, Mike!
