Flutist Julie Long, trumpeter Gary Halopoff, and violinist Armen Anassian ran alongside Roy for part of the way, and on bicycles were trombonist David Stout, Wiegand\u2019s wife, flutist Angela Wiegand, and his father, trombonist Roy Wiegand, in addition to many others.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_525\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/roy-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-525\" class=\"size-full wp-image-525\" alt=\"He made it!\u2008Wiegand crosses the finish line with stroller in tow \u2014 during the run, he rolled with the stroller with which he gave rides to kids along the way.\" src=\"https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/roy-3.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/roy-3.jpg 400w, https:\/\/afm47.org\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/roy-3-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-525\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">He made it!\u2008Wiegand crosses the finish line with stroller in tow \u2014 during the run, he rolled with the stroller with which he gave rides to kids along the way.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cI love to run, but these challenges are really a vehicle for something much bigger, much greater than a run,\u201d Wiegand said. \u201cIt\u2019s for a great cause.
