FREDERICK, Md. - Before the Army, Spc. Mark Lopez never ran a mile in his life.
Now, Lopez is running 185 miles in rapid succession down the length of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park to raise money for wounded warriors.
Lopez, who is stationed at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in Washington, started running Sunday in Cumberland and is expected to come through Frederick County between Wednesday and Friday.
"My biggest challenge is going to be eating enough food, but I think the running itself is going to be easy," Lopez said in a phone interview a few days before the weeklong run kicked off.
