Volunteers needed for the LAWS Run for the Shelter 5K and Half Marathon

 One of the Loudoun Road Runners annual community service events is to provide volunteers for two water stations for the LAWS Run for the Shelter and we need your help! We need intrepid volunteers who are willing to brave the elements (hopefully the elements will be favorable this year) on Sunday, April 18th to distribute water and cheer on the runners. If you're able to help contact Marcia Keene at marcia.keene@gmail.com. 

Run for Arthritis

 Patrick McGlade is a 21 year old from Richmond who is running across the U.S. to raise money for Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. Although he has  been a runner for only a few years, he has among his accomplishments a 5th place finish at the Burning River 100 Mile, 2nd place in the GEER 100K and overall winner at the Swinging Bridge 50k ( a favorite of Phil's). I'll be posting the weekly summary that his father compiles here but you can also follow daily progress on Patricks blog at http://patricksrunblog.blogspot.com/
