The day was perfect -- sunny and cool -- for the third annual Wellness Run sponsored by the Marshall Public School District Wellness Committee and the Salt Fork YMCA. Runners and walkers of various ages participated Saturday, April 17: kindergarteners and first graders did a quarter of a mile, second- through fourth-graders did a half-mile circuit and runners of all ages ran a two-mile route.
