Meb Keflezighi
After winning the 2009 ING New York City Marathon in 2:09.15, San Diego's Meb Keflezighi returned home to a large crowd of the supporters at the San Diego Hall of Champions to discuss his historic finish.
Salute to the Champions
The Breitbard Hall of Fame, established in 1953 by Robert Breitbard, honors athletes who have excelled athletically in San Diego, or who are native San Diegans who have achieved athletic fame elsewhere. Since 1953, the Breitbard Hall of Fame has inducted 104 members representing 20 sports.
The Breitbard Hall of Fame originally stemmed from the Breitbard Athletic Foundation, founded in 1946. After initially awarding only Stars of the Month, and then Stars of the Year, the Foundation decided upon a career achievement award, and the Breitbard Hall of Fame was born. To be inducted into the Breitbard Hall of Fame is the ultimate accolade for a local athlete.
