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/

Santa's Big Butt Half-Marathon
This note arrived from Karsten Brown of the Shenandoah Valley Runners:
The second race in the Shenandoah Valley Runners' Winter Series, the
Jingle Bell 5K, HAD been scheduled to take place tomorrow-- Saturday
19 December-- at Blandy Experimental Farm & State Arboretum near
Boyce, Virginia. But due to the big snowstorm, the SVR is postponing
the Jingle Bell 5K until NEXT Saturday-- the 26th. It'll still be at
Blandy, and it'll still start at 9:30. Contact r.d. Duane Williamson
at duanegwilliamson@comcast.net if you have any questions or if you
want to volunteer next Saturday.
