Bravo and thank you to our outstanding PeaceHealth medical team volunteers, led by Dr. Rob Rush, for taking such great care of the weary and the wounded at Sunday's Bellingham Bay Marathon! Three-dozen MDs, PAs, RNs and medical support caregivers staffed two stations out on the route and one at the Finish Line. Special shout-out to our closing team at the Finish Line for saving a life with CPR and an AED after a spectator experienced a cardiac event. We are so grateful to our partners at Whatcom County Emergency Medical Services Administration for generously lending us AEDs every year, to have on hand just in case. ❤️ Finally, congrats to our BBM partners on a successful race, and to the 2,000 runners and walkers who finished!
