This years Torch Run to benefit Special Olympics will be held on Thursday June 11th.
The run will be the same as last year, beginning at the Fairfax County line on route #1 and ending at the entrance to the Marine Corps Base on Fuller Road.
Anyone who is interested in participating in the run, please contact me via e-mail so, I can have some idea on the number of runners. Runners will be assigned to different legs of the run but, if you have a particular area you want to run, or if you want to run the entire length ( approx.10 miles) let me know. The run is expected to reach Prince William County around 2 P.M. A shuttle bus will be provided to transport the runners to their posts and pick them up after they complete their leg. T-shirts will be available for purchase. Athlete, Please let us know the size you need if you are attending.
Once the runners reach the area of Route #1 and Cardinal Drive, Special Olympics athlete will join them for a short run. As in the past, food and drinks will be provided. This will start around noon and be held in the garage area at the Gar-Field pumps. Please stop by and mingle with the Special Olympic Athletes and grab yourself something to eat and drink.
Further details will be forthcoming on the times and sequence of events.
