    A nighttime running race event where two runners wearing bibs numbered 100 and 101 pass through a ceremonial torch-lined corridor formed by spectators or volunteers. The scene appears to be a start or finish line area illuminated by tiki torches held aloft by people on both sides. A banner partially visible on the left references 'Ultra Run' suggesting this is an ultramarathon event.

    U.S. Army Sgt. Maj. Ruben "Ben" Cavazos, center left, from Honolulu, sergeant major for the 8th Human Resources Sustainment Center, and U.S. Navy Lt. Cmdr. Paul Allen, a dietician for Medical Task Force - Kuwait, begin the Hawaiian Ultra Running Team 100 at Camp Arifjan, Kuwait, Jan. 19. Cavazos ran the 100 mile race in Kuwait with permission of race officials because he is deployed there in support of Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. Cavazos completed the 100 miler in 18 hours, 59 minutes, 49 seconds and raised more than $10,000 for the Wounded Warrior Project, a non-profit organization designed to aid severely wounded service men and women.
