"Running for Refuge"

riak_mabil_blog

"Senior Riak Mabil was born in Sudan, but was displaced to Kenya and eventually
came to the United States as a refugee in 2000. He considers the role of his teammate,
also from Southern Sudan, an influence in his decision to
run Cross Country and Track at Central Michigan."

This is not exactly the portrait I had envisioned. Although there are things I wish I would have done differently,
I have grown to appreciate the simplicity of it solely because of Riak's intricate life story.
I'd highly suggest taking the time to read Aaron McMann's article.
