KESSLER: Runaways 5 Miler HEATS winner made summer memorable
Tuesday, September 11, 2007 10:53 PM EDT (exerpt) Labor Day has come and gone, but, it’s still considered summer until Sept. 21, which means it’s not too late to hand out the annual Honors for Extraordinary Achievements in the Summer or HEATS awards for 2007. Recipients are:
The Runaways Runaround 5-Miler: This annual benefit run for Community VNA Hospice, turned 5 on a gorgeous Sunday morning, Aug. 19, and is proving itself to be a staple of the summer road-running circuit. Offering a nice course through downtown North Attleboro and on some of the rural roads that border some of the town’s remaining farms, it’s a nice way to get some exercise on a summer Sunday, and to help an excellent cause in the process. Special HEAT awards to Olympians Amy Rudolph and Mark Coogan, whose participation this year greatly enhanced the race.
