Inspiring Instagram Photos of the day - Marathon Runners preparing to help the Sandy relief efforts
We are so inspired by the photos of the NYC Marathon runners who instead devoted their days to helping the Sandy relief efforts. Runners are a group with amazing heart and community spirit, and never more so than today. Here, some of the early photos we love:
