Cool story (with picture)...

A young man who was known for his ability to run was stricken by a devastating knee injury. After surgery and months of painful rehab he set a goal: run to the top of Stone Mountain. When the young man was told he could begin running again, he took a trip to the giant rock that extends over 1,500 feet into the sky. Running all the way to the top was his way of mentally bringing himself back; of reminding himself that he was capable of anything. We all have lessons we can learn from Marcus Lattimore.

That translates into about 500 yards. That story has too much symbolism. Georgia is Marcus's highlight reel. Bring on the leghumpers.
