Sunday: Run a Mile for Boston in Vienna
Walkers, runners and spectators invited to 8 a.m. walk/run on the W&OD Trail.
Though police captured the second suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings late Friday night — ending a week-long search for the two men police believe are responsible for killing three and injuring 170 in the city's most iconic event — the country is continuing to rally around the victims who still have a long road to recovery.
In Vienna, a run is being planned for 8 a.m. Sunday on the W&OD Trail.
The event was posted by "RunnerPirateGirl" in a blog named "Vienna Runs for Boston." It's not clear who exactly is organizing the event.

The post says the group will "run down the WO&D trail to the west (downhill) turn around at the half mile mark, or keep going for what ever distance suits you."
