Meet a Bellin Run Legend - Nic Lyons! While he is always eager to get back on the Bellin Run race course, Nic's favorite Bellin Run tradition has been going to our Friday night Health and Fitness Expo to watch his grandchildren participate in the Children's Run. He has always loved running and has competed in about 20 marathons, including four Boston Marathons. He has also participated in numerous 5Ks and 10Ks. One year, Nic was injured during a volleyball game and he broke his cheekbone, making it very difficult to run or even jog. His plastic surgeon told Nic he could walk the Bellin Run but surprisingly, when race day came, Nic was able to run without any pain. His story of determination was picked up by the Green Bay Press-Gazette, which interviewed him in the hospital after his cheekbone repair surgery.
