Ashes to Dust 5K
Thomas Leachman, 12, receives an optional little black cross of ashes from a 96th Test Wing Chaplain during the Ashes to Dust 5K Feb. 18 at the Civil Engineering Pavilion on Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. Approximately 225 runners came out for the Ash Wednesday, Ashes to Dust 5K run. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lent season for Christians so Eglin’s Chapel held the event to start the season with spiritual and physical inspiration. (U.S. Air Force photo/Ilka Cole)
