Boston Remberance Run/Walk/Picnic

0 Comment(s) | Posted

Fleet Feet Sports, The Huntsville Track Club, We Run Huntsville, Team Rocket Tri, and First Place Athletics would like to invite you to a run, walk, picnic to remember and honor those who suffered from the tragedy at the Boston Marathon on Monday, April 15, 2013. This is a time for runners, families, and supporters in the community to come together during this tragic time to remember the lives that were lost and injured while also making a stand that we are unstoppable.

We will start meeting at 2:00 p.m. at the Hampton Cove Greenway for the event to start. At 2:50PM, the time at which the first bomb was detonated, there will be a moment of silence. Directly following the moment of silence will be the 3 mile run/walk along the Running of the Bulls course. Please keep in mind that the event is free and there will be no official timing.  The picnic is potluck style so please bring your favorite covered dish or dessert. Bring a lawn chair or blanket out to enjoy the afternoon picnic! Shirts will be available to the first 200 people to come out to support the event.

Please remember to invite your family and friends!
