Llew’s Loop coming up

The Spokesman-Review

Last year a former University High School runner and coach started a community fun run to honor retiring U-Hi cross country coach Steve Llewellyn. It was such a success that the event is coming back for a second run next Thursday.

“We wanted to honor him (Llewellyn), and we wanted all the graduates from his 21 years to come back and kind of have a reunion,” said former runner Shanna Hale.

Hale teamed up with current U-Hi cross country coach Chrissy Francek to get the run off the ground. Last year many current and former students were among the 300 participants.

The 3-mile run, called Llew’s Loop, begins at Pines and 34th at 3 p.m. It’s free, and on-site registration will be available before the run begins. Llewellyn is expected to attend. For more information, call Hale at 255-6123.
