FOREY RUNS: Metro Runner Recovers From Attack

A well-known metro runner assaulted at a Des Moines bar is being giving a special honor.

Friday, organizers announced Forey Jacobson will start the IMT Des Moines Marathon later this month.

You might remember, Jacobson was assaulted last November.  Jacobson was in a coma and had to undergo several surgeries after the attack.

He is still recovering but will run the 5K road race associated with the marathon.
