The Chelsea’s Light Foundation page tells us that Chelsea King was an avid cross country runner, a gifted student and musician, a loving daughter and sister, at 17 Chelsea was well on her way to realizing her dreams. Pursuing one of her passions, Chelsea went on a training run after school on the trails at Lake Hodges not far from her Poway, California home on February 25, 2010.

It took authorities five days to find her body. John Gardener was a sex offender that had been released early. He killed Amber Dubois in 2009 then Chelsea King in 2010. Today thousands of participants run in hopes their footprints will help change the way we treat sexual predators in any community.

Does it matter if George can get to the museum? I don’t think so.
