SAN ANTONIO -- Imagine if somebody told you that you had to run nearly 500 miles in just 13 days. Would you even know where to start?

Houston radio host Kevin Kline started in Dallas about a week ago, and ran a cool 36 miles on Saturday through San Antonio. News 4 WOAI caught up with him on the Northwest Side where he and supporters from his "Strides Across Texas" campaign ate some dinner after their run. Kevin says he's running to raise awareness of pediatric cancer.

Kline's ultra-marathon will conclude on the steps of the Texas Children's Cancer Center in Houston on New Year's Day. He told News 4 WOAI hundreds of pediatric cancer survivors will join him for the last short leg of the run.
