Run for Boston in Central Illinois

Friday, 4 April 2014

Central Illinois residents are inspired to run for the victims of the Boston Bombings. One Run for Boston is a first of its kind running relay and today it passed through Clark County. The relay started in Los Angeles March 16th and will finish up in Boston next week. Those who passed through the area today say it's a chance to show the world that something as simple as putting one foot in front of the other will help all of us get past the crisis. The money raised from the event goes to victims of the 2013 Boston Marathon Bombings. Along with the baton, runners also carried a flag that will be displayed at this year's Marathon April 21st.
