WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (WAVY) - Dov Troup got invited to run a marathon more than 20 years ago and he hasn't looked back since.
Recently, he decided to set a goal to run 50 marathons in 50 weeks, but his mission was much bigger.  Dov wanted to find a way to raise awareness of wounded soldiers returning from war and he has done that with each running step.  His story to help others made him this week's I Am Hampton Roads.

Dov finished his 50th marathon on December 22.  His next goal is to run 100 miles in 24 hours.
