Fun run
By B_Robin_Earl
The Fauquier Free Clinic will host the Pacemakers 5K/10K run, rain or shine, beginning at 8:30 a.m. on June 29, 2008. A first for the Free Clinic, the event will be a fundraiser; the entire community is invited.
The scenic runs on well-marked courses will start from the airstrip at Airlie Conference Center. There will be a 5K run/walk (3.1 miles); a 10K run (6.2 miles) and a kids’ fun run (under 1 mile). The kids’ fun run will be sponsored by Piedmont Pediatrics and Woodside Pediatric Dentistry.
Refreshments and water stops will be available along the way and all pre-registered entrants will receive a free T-shirt. Registrations received before June 25 are $30. The fee for the kids’ fun run is $10. Same day registrations must be finished by 8 a.m. and will cost $35. Checks may be made out to “Fauquier Free Clinic” and may be mailed to Pacemakers Run, P.O. Box 3138, Warrenton, VA 20188.
On the Run Sports will handle the race timing and drinks will be provided by Function Drinks.
Online registration is available at www.fauquierfreeclinic.org, where those interested may also find forms, maps and updates. Call 540-428-3610 for more information.
