Dawn Manuelito is readying her body, and mind Sunday prepping for a mission to honor not only her Native American heritage but a family legacy of courage.

“It’s something I’m supposed to do, and the time is now,” said Manuelito.

Next Sunday, Manuelito will join tens of thousands in Washington D.C. for the Marina Corps Marathon. A 26-mile race in memory of a man who helped shape who she is today.

“He served our country, he served it in a bigger way than most people can even understand or fathom,” said Manuelito.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
