WEST MARLBOROUGH: Chasin' for Chalfin

I just received an email reminding me about Chasin' for Chalfin, the 5K and 10K trail race to be held on Saturday, June 25, at the gorgeous Runnymede Sanctuary here in West Marlborough Township. It starts at 9 a.m. rain or shine at 128 Runnymede Rd. You can register onsite starting at 7:45 a.m. or save $10 by preregistering at runreg.com/chasin.
The race is run in honor of West Marlborough resident and township supervisor Jake Chalfin, who uses a wheelchair due to his injury during a steeplechase in 2010. Proceeds from the race initially went to help Jake meet his expenses, but according to the website of the sponsor, Trail Creek Outfitters, "Our race has evolved over the years and we are now able to share the race proceeds with other individuals needing adaptive equipment and organizations who support individuals with such needs."
