Running a marathon is a feat even for the best athletes, but more than 100 children from the area will be finishing a marathon they’ve been running all year this weekend. Life South Community Blood Centers will have the first Five Points of Life Kids Marathon in Georgia this Saturday at the Gwinnett Braves’ Coolray Field. The marathon is in conjunction with the Five Points of Life in the Classroom program that educates children about blood donations.
