Miles for James 5K- August 14th

August 14 there is a 5K...the race is called the Miles for James 5K and is a benefit for a close family friend of Rufo Calimlim (running club member).  James was struck by a car last September running and is in semi-comatose state and still recovering.  The race proceeds will help cover his medical expenses.  See link below if interested in running this race.
