From President Ray:
B+ Fighting Childhood Cancer 5k: Run or Volunteer
The 6th Annual B+ Fighting Childhood Cancer 5k Run/Walk is Thursday, June 21st at Salesianum School starting at 6:45pm. As a partner of the B+ Foundation, PCVRC will help to fight childhood cancer because 46 kids are told they have cancer every school day. Join our team today by running, walking or donating to our Team Goal. Help us raise money for kids fighting cancer! Click the link below and then you’ll be prompted to register. If you have any questions please contact team captain Jim Steele at 530-7274.

Or if you can volunteer, please contact Ray () soon. PCVRC will have a table set up to recruit members and in exchange hope that a few members can help on race day (registration, course marshal, etc). More info at http://www.BePositive.org
We need to get our volunteer list in before Tuesday, so let me know.
Volunteer options are:
a. As early as 4pm: set up tables, chairs, etc
b. As early as 5pm: registration
c. 6pm: course marshal (gather at school flagpole)
d. After race: cleanup
I’ll arrive early, since I also have to set up our table/banner.

5K/10K the Westside Way
I apologize for getting this out late, only two days before the event, Westside Family Healthcare’s “5K/10K the Westside Way”. Connie Montana wrote If anyone wants to volunteer, we’ve got the Best Post-Race Party in town and FREE BEER! I’ve got ten free race entries too; first-come; first served. Direct folks to me. Thanks so much! Cheers, Connie .

Data 5K
Mark Deshon notes that on May 6 he ran the Data 5K and placed second in the 50+ category with a 19:29. Mark notes that at 55 (six days shy of 56), this time age-grades out to 78.87, his 13th best ever effort and his 6th best age-graded race. Says Mark, “Definitely an unusual blip on the screen in the grand scheme of things, meaning that I still may have a pulse at age 56!”
