Help expand the Governor's School Alumni's presence in the Richmond community by handing out water at the SunTrust Richmond Marathon/McDonald's Half Marathon. Our water stop will be located on Lombardy Street between VUU and Maggie Walker at Mile 24 of the full marathon and Mile 11 of the half. This is a great way to connect with current Governor's School students at the neighboring race Spirit Group setup on school grounds.
There will be two shifts, one from 11am to 1pm, and the second from 1pm to 3pm.

Also if you are running in the marathon and want to carb out, or if you aren't running and just want to hang out, come to Noodles and Co. at Willow Lawn the night before the race for a pasta dinner social event. Details on that can be found here

Thank you to everyone who came out to "water" the runners and to those who cheered on the athletes at the Spirit Booth! I was completely unprepared for how amazing this experience would be.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful energy from the volunteers and it was returned, amplified, by the marathoners and halfers.
