Pelton to run Boston Marathon

By Jonathan A. Lee | April 10, 1996

It happens once a year. Thousands of runners from every corner of the earth and from all walks of life flood the Boston proper to compete in the world's oldest and most prestigious annual marathon the Boston Marathon. This year, Dean Lee Pelton will be joining this flock of world-class runners. Of course, running marathons is not the type of thing you would expect from a college dean. But for those who know Pelton, and for those who have seen him working out at the gym, his spirited urge to tackle these grueling 26.2 miles should come as no surprise. "I've always been a seasonal runner ... and a year-round basketball player," Pelton said with a smile.
