More than nine hours later, as the last of the marathon runners were finishing, Vaughan handed out the awards. He was still excited and inspired by the runners. Exhaustion would have to wait.

Don Wright started to cramp late in his run during the Half Moon Bay International Marathon on Sunday, so he slowed to a walk.
