This past weekend, Joel Cortes (Jovany's father) completed the Miami Half Ironman. The half ironman is a 1.2 mile swim (in the ocean), 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run. He trained and competed in memory of Jovany and raised money for Second Harvest Food Bank. Jovany was a compassionate young man who wanted to feed the hungry; Joel and his family continue that mission. His family credits BCHS with giving Jovany confidence and feeling accepted.
