Local Running Group Runs in Honor of Boston Marathon

Dr. Scott Ruhlman

Boston Marathon 2013The local Richmond Beach Running Group, started by our own Dr. Scott Ruhlman, dedicated this past Saturday’s run to support and honor the events at the recent Boston Marathon.

Two runners from the club completed the marathon this year and were at the event along with a total of 63 runners from the club, many of which were past finishers of the Boston marathon, including Dr. Scott Ruhlman.

The Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Patch reported on the local relevance of the bombings as “Four runners from Shoreline, and seven runners from Edmonds were registered (for the Boston Marathon).”

They also detailed the two local runners from the Richmond Beach Running Club who attended Monday’s Boston Marathon who discussed with the group their experiences surrounding the race and the bombing tragedy.

Q13 Fox also reported on the event, which eventually had 63 runners and 10 children of the newly formed members from the Richmond Beach Running Club as they ran along Richmond Beach Road NW. Two of the club runners completed the Boston Marathon on Monday, “finishing the race before the two bombs detonated.”
