I'm not sure if you have heard this story, but a runner was killed in January, while on a run. There is a virtual run in her honor this weekend. No money required, just print off a bib and run in her memory. The link below is a blog that I follow that has more info and the bibs if you are interested.

I am at work on Saturday morning, but what I intend to do is to do the run as soon as I get home. I start at 3.45am so it may even work out that I will be able to get home and run at 9am anyway.
Very, very sad case, heartbreaking actually.0 -

Very sad, and as a woman and a runner, it hits close to home. It could happen to anyone.
I'm in on Saturday.0 -
As a runner and someone who taught for 4 years..I'm in..will be 10am here in San Antonio.0

Thank you so much for posting this-- I'd read of the story when her shoe was first found, but hadn't heard any more-- this is horrible.
I'm in Saturday-- representing Phillipsburg, New Jersey.0 -
This is so very sad. It is no wonder why I will not run alone in the dark.
Just printed my bib. "See" you all at 9 am on Saturday.0 -
I'm a kiwi, so my Saturday will be your Friday, but I'm in. So tragic.0

I'm in.
I, too, have run in the dark. As a teacher, you have to fit runs in when you can.
Godspeed to all the broken hearts over this heartless and tragic event.0 -
I have a long run planned for Saturday morning, you can count me in for this as well...0

I've also been hesitant to go running when it's dark, although something like this can, and has, happened in broad daylight. I'm in on Saturday. I hope they find her body soon so her family can start the healing process.0
