Members of the local running community are currently in the beginning stages of organizing an event to bring awareness to the issue of runner safety, following last weekend’s tragic hit and run accident, which took the life of one area runner and injured another.
More concrete details will be available here at valleyrunningclub.org as the event comes into focus. For the time being, join the planning discussion on the VRC Facebook Group Page to find out how you can help or get involved

Locals Prowl the Sproul in Hyner Pa
Temperatures in the upper sixties at the start of the race, along with generally dry trail conditions made for some very fast times. Twenty-four year old Matt Lipsey defended his own title and set a new course record with his blistering 47:10 finish, on a course with a whopping 1,600ft of climb, and a corresponding 1,600ft of elevation loss.
The local contingent was led by John Johnson in 2nd place and Jeffery Shanks in 11th, though the day isn’t really about competition and no awards are given.
Also in attendance from the VRC coverage area were: Brian Kunkle, Christopher Coon, John Shanks, Tabby Dunn, Mike Meagher, Brian Dunn, Maria Schreiber, Hilary Mcilroy, Sebrina Deleree and Amey Johnson
At the finish line, where they milled about for the next hour cheering for fellow competitors as they rolled in, runners were treated to free food and drink. This year’s $25 race entry included a Sproul 10k t-shirt and Merino Wool trail running socks made by Wigwam.
