GRAND RAPIDS, Mich — As thousands of runners prepare for the Amway Riverbank Run next month, one Kent County woman remembers the fateful race day in 2011 when her husband didn't make it to the finish line.

Jason had been attempting to beat his previous time from the year before and break into the "two-hour club" that Saturday morning. “It was very sudden, very unexpected," Kristi said.
