A note to runners in Rappahannock County and throughout the region: Mark Oct. 25 on your calendars. A new five-kilometer run is being planned for Sperryville.
Proceeds from the Sperryville Fall 5K will benefit Rappahannock youths in memory of Lucy Grace, a Sperryville infant who died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome in 2007.
Proceeds from the run will benefit the Rappahannock County School Sports Association, the SIDS Foundation and the Rappahannock County Park and Recreation Program.
Melissa Harris, a Sperryv ille resident and member of RCSSA, is organizing the event.
