Local Olympian returns

for charity run

Olympian Alan Webb will return to his hometown of Reston on Nov. 27 to lead a youth fun run that raises money for charity.

Webb, who holds the American record for the mile and competed with the U.S. track team in the 2004 Athens Olympics, has led the run since 2001, when he was a freshman in college. It benefits Neediest Kids, which helps D.C.-area students meet basic needs like clothes and supplies for school and medical check-ups.

There will be six different age brackets for the one-mile run around Reston Town Center, from toddlers to teens. Webb will lead each group in a warm-up and then run along with them, according to Neediest Kids. A donation of $5 is suggested.
