ARMY TEN-MILER DEFENDING CHAMPION’S FAST TRACK
TO BECOME A MODEL SOLDIER ATHLETE
Army SPC Paul Chelimo is living the American dream. Just six years ago,
Chelimo arrived in the United States from his native Kenya to pursue an
education and his love of running. Now, fresh off qualifying for Team USA at
the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the 25-year-old Soldier is
poised to defend his top-finisher title at the 2016 Army Ten-Miler (ATM).
After earning his bachelor’s degree in
public health in 2014, Chelimo followed
in the footsteps of fellow UNCG student
and Kenyan runner Paul Katam, joining
the Army and becoming a U.S. citizen
through the Military Accessions Vital to the
SPC Chelimo’s life course seems to have destined him for greatness. He was

“Young kids want to know everything about
the Army, so I teach them how it’s about more
than just warfighting; it’s about doing your job
and learning to excel at sports like running.”
This year, WCAP qualified five Track & Field

“It’s really a great feeling to represent the Soldiers who work hard every
day and the ones who have lost their lives,” he said. “It’s a great way to
represent them.”
Training for the ATM is a lot different from training for a 3,000-meters or
5,000-meters, however. Early this year, Chelimo concentrated on shorter races
such as the Portland 3K to prepare for the USA Track and Field (USATF) Indoor
Championships, and the subsequent International Association of Athletics
Federations (IAAF) World Indoor Championships in March. For the Olympic
competition, Chelimo focused on further building his speed by engaging in
speedwork. After returning from Rio, he will start with longer-distance runs
to build endurance for the ATM. “It’s going to come down to endurance and
speed,” said Chelimo. “I have speed; I just need to work on my endurance.”
“This year, we’ll have a really strong All-Army
Team because we’re all in top shape,” said
Chelimo. “It’s going to be a great ATM
this year.”
Already, halfway through his four-year Army
contract, Chelimo says he anticipates reenlisting in 2018 because he enjoys serving
his country and performing his job. Having the
opportunity to run for the Army, he adds,
“is the icing on the cake.”
As luck would have it, his three fellow Olympic-qualifying runners from the
Army plan to train with him for the ATM as part of their common participation
in the All-Army Team. The teammates enjoy a friendly rivalry with each other.
Last year, Chelimo narrowly edged out Army SPC Nicholas Kipruto and SPC
Kipchirchir to take first place in the 2015 ATM—a significant improvement over
Chelimo’s previous 32nd place finish. The All-Army Team as a whole performed
admirably in 2015, breaking the team’s race record and winning the prestigious
International Cup.
Members of the All-Army Team keep pace at
the 2015 Army Ten-Miler.

WOUNDED WARRIOR TO STAGE DRAMATIC
COMEBACK AT 32ND ARMY TEN-MILER
For 44-year-old Norberto “Norbie” Lara of Visalia, California, participating
in the 32nd Army Ten-Miler (ATM) is not just the fulfillment of a dream; it’s
nothing short of a miracle.
Twelve years ago, Lara woke from a two-month coma to find himself at Walter
Reed National Military Medical Center. The Squad Leader had been on a
combat patrol in Baqubah, Iraq when his vehicle was hit by a rocket-propelled
grenade. In addition to losing an arm, Lara suffered a brain injury, a lacerated
liver and lung damage
requiring a tracheotomy.
As he began his two-year
recovery at Walter Reed,
Lara had to relearn how to
talk and was dependent on
oxygen. It took a long time
for him to simply stand again,
to adjust to his amputation
and eventually to breathe on
his own.
Mentally, his recovery was
just as tough. Lara initially
lay in bed wondering if he’d
ever be able to do anything
again. He had joined the
Army at age 22, wanting to
serve his country as his older
brother had, and eventually
become a cop. His service as
a military police officer took
him to Bosnia and Kuwait on
previous deployments, but
Iraq was his first experience
in a combat zone. He had
enjoyed running in his personal time, finding
it a good way to challenge himself and
experience “the runner’s high.” It was these
memories – and an article he read about the
ATM while recuperating at Walter Reed –
that helped him adjust his perspective and
strengthened his resolve to run again.
“It’s important to set small goals toward a
larger goal,” says Lara about overcoming
adversity. “When you feel like everything has
been taken from you, you need to overcome
mental blocks. Don’t listen to those who say
‘you can’t do something.’”
In January 2015, Lara achieved a milestone
in his physical recovery with the removal of a
bone growth that had caused chronic pain.
After his introduction to Operation Enduring
Warrior, he began walking a lot more, he
hit the gym again and eventually embarked
on longer runs. He took part in a five-mile
Spartan Sprint in September 2015, the Bataan
Memorial Death March earlier this year, and
recently completed the Spartan Agoge, which
is one of the most grueling challenges Spartan
offers. The next logical step for Lara was to
begin training for the 2016 ATM.
“When you feel like everything has been taken from you,
you need to overcome mental blocks. Don’t listen to those
who say ‘you can’t do something.’”
– NORBERTO “NORBIE” LARA
“Until this last year, I never thought it would
be possible to run long distances again due
to my lung damage,” says Lara. “This year, I
intend not only to attempt the ATM, but to
finish the race.”
Brimming with confidence, it’s an objective
he fully expects to achieve. “Once a Soldier,
always a Soldier,” he says.

FAMILY LEGACY: DAUGHTER HONORS LATE FATHER
BY FOLLOWING IN FOOTSTEPS AT ARMY TEN-MILER
Many who run in the Army Ten-Miler dedicate their participation to a friend,
colleague, fellow Soldier or relative. In most cases, it’s a matter of an individual
who is already a committed runner devoting his or her efforts to one who has
shaped or heavily influenced their lives. In the case of 30-year-old Richmond,
Virginia resident Bethany Anderson, her inspiration was the reason she took up
running in the first place.
Two months might not be an ideal time-frame
for which to prepare for one’s first Ten-Miler,
but that October, proudly wearing “Team
Ralph” t-shirts, mother and daughter crossed
the finish line. Anderson has gradually worked
her way up to running six times a week, and
now covers 30-35 miles a week.
Back in 1994, Anderson’s father, SGM Ralph Wilcher, was transferred
from Germany to the former Total Army Personnel Command (PERSCOM)
headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia. Settling his family in Stafford, Virginia,
SGM Wilcher endured the long, frustrating daily commute familiar to so many
in the Washington, D.C. area. Always a runner, SGM Wilcher would head to
Alexandria and run prior to the start of his work day, often logging as many as
seven miles a day. So it was natural that he would enthusiastically sign up for the
1995 Army Ten-Miler, a practice he maintained annually through 2012.
Anderson, meanwhile, living a typical childhood filled with friends, school
and ballet, was always one of Ralph’s biggest supporters, crafting signs and
positioning herself along the route with family, first to cheer her dad, and then
her mom Kathrine as well. Kathrine Wilcher began running the ATM with her
husband in 1997 and has continued since his death from cancer in 2013. Not
surprisingly, 2013 and 2014 were emotional races for the entire Wilcher clan,
and especially difficult for Kathrine after so many years of running with her
husband.
Never a consistent runner herself, Anderson determined after the 2014 ATM
that she would no longer allow her mother to run alone, so she turned to her
late father for inspiration. She gave birth to her first child in early 2015 and in
August of that year began training, which provided both therapy for her grief
and the added benefit of enhanced strength and confidence. Proud to call
herself an “Army Brat,” Anderson began running one or two miles at a time,
slowly building up her distance and knowledge of running, operating off of her
best logic and luck. Initially, she ran every other day, after work, accompanied to
the track by her husband, who would push their baby in the stroller as she ran
alongside.
Bethany Anderson will compete in her second
Army Ten-Miler in honor of her late father, SGM
Ralph Wilcher, who ran the ATM 18 times.
“Now I run every day, and my dad is the
reason for that,” said Anderson. “As it was for
my dad, running is now a part of my lifestyle
and identity. I have become a happier and
healthier person in the process.”
Anderson and her mother Kathrine vow to run
every Army Ten-Miler together for as long as
they are both physically able, running to honor
SGM Ralph Wilcher, Soldier, husband and
father. “When I run the ATM, I feel like my dad
is with me. It is one of the most special days of
the year for me.”
Emblazoned on the back of her shirt? “I Run
For My Dad,” undoubtedly earning a smile
from many an Army child.

HAPPY COUPLE PLANS FIRST ATM RACE TOGETHER
IN 2016 AFTER POST-RACE PROPOSAL LAST YEAR
Scott Mindel, an Acoustical Engineer for Applied Physical Sciences/
Electric Boat (MA) had a little extra incentive to reach the finish line as
quickly as possible at last year’s Army Ten-Miler (ATM) in Washington D.C.
Notwithstanding his role as a key runner on his General Dynamics (GD)
ATM race team, Mindel had plans to ask his girlfriend, Sasha Varanka, an
occupational therapist, to marry him immediately after the race.
Mindel’s teammates, who had flown in from as far away as San Diego,
Spain, and Switzerland, were surely counting on him. GD Chairman and
CEO Phebe Novakovic turned out to cheer the first-time GD teams to victory
in the corporate division. Mindel’s family made the journey, well aware of
his post-race plans. Even his girlfriend’s family was in attendance because
her sister was also an ATM competitor.
Clearly … no pressure.
Participating in his first ATM, Mindel finished 11th overall among the 26,310
runners, while the GD teams took second and third place, respectively,
among the 64-team field. While certainly happy with his run, his post-race
proposal strategy proved nearly as challenging.
“I was doing my cool down towards the
Navy Merchant Marine Memorial, a perfect
spot decorated with flowers overlooking the
memorials across the Potomac,” Mindel said.
“Sasha was running with me, en route to
retrieve her sister’s extra clothes at the hotel.
I tried to get her to stop at the Memorial by
telling her I had something in my shoe, but
she kept running saying I could catch up to
her. After trying again, I pulled the ring out
of my shorts pocket and got down on one
knee, all probably in one fluid motion. She
was very surprised, put it on, and didn’t say
anything until I asked her if she was going to
say anything.
“She hugged me and responded, ‘Of
course!’”
The couple was married last August and will
run their first ATM together this weekend.
