Name: Bob Levant

Location: Pennsylvania

Interests/Hobbies: Travel, hiking, hanging out with my wife and sons and, of course, running

How many marathons have you run? This will be my fifth marathon

Why did you decide to join Team African Leadership Foundation? I am running for the African Leadership Foundation as a tribute to my amazing sons Roman and Mabret. In December, my wife, Kathy, Roman and I traveled to Ethiopia to adopt Mabret who is five years old. There is so much work that needs done in Africa that this seems like a small sacrifice to make.

What motivates you to train everyday? I am motivated to train because running makes me feel good and it is important to us that Mabret and Roman see their parents dedicate themselves to accomplishing goals and helping others while doing it.
