6th Annual 5K "Run for Shelter" November 2, 2002, Charlottesville's Downtown Mall |

|
Over 250 runners take-off from the start line braving a brisk, November morning. |








|
Shelter Race Director, Matt Hodges (left) gives out last minute instructions to Board Member, Laura Hawthorne as the youngest runner (right) nears the finish line or maybe that was just a dash for the donuts!!! |
|
Tired runners near the finish line--some even sporting last year's race shirt. |
|
One of the youngest runners models this year's T-shirt. Our run would not be such a successful event without the support of local businesses that provide prizes. |
|
A women's group poses after successfully completing the race. The Shelter gives out special prizes to the group that has the most runners. Way to go ladies!!! |
|
Knowing how quickly runners work up an appetite, the Shelter has plenty of treats on hand for runners and on-lookers alike! |
