Brian Larson

Brian Larson is an artist and Chief Financial Officer at a non-profit in Miami, Florida. He is travelling with Carol Chang, both natives of Iowa, who met 20 years ago while working with CARE in Haiti. In 2007, the two decided to bike across Iowa in the state's annual 500 mile bike ride, called the RAGBRAI. After completing the ride, in a moment of delusion, the two decided to train for the NYC Marathon. Seven years later, in addition to the NYC Marathon, they have completed marathons in Berlin, Germany, Limpopo, South Africa, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Shanghai, China and Melbourne, Australia. Brian and Carol hope to finish the Ice Marathon to complete their pledge to one another to run marathons on all seven continents.
