Half-marathon promotes Sonoma

 

While we're on the subject of good things, we would be remiss if we did not pay belated tribute to the exceptional experience the Napa to Sonoma Wine Country Half Marathon has become, under the guidance of Destination Races and event director Matt Dockstader. The sold-out 2011 race on July 17 brought 3,000 competitors - and probably that many supporters as well - to Sonoma from all over the country and from around the world. Benefitting Hanna Boys Center, Altimira Middle School and the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation, the race has emerged as an event of national importance with major benefit to Sonoma and the charities it supports.
