This race is in honor of Gale Pfueller, a founding member of Greater Bellingham Running Club. Gale was an instrumental volunteer with the club from its inception in 1976 until he passed at the age of 79 on March 25, 2022. He was a genuine treasure to this community! His encouragement to runners of all abilities and ages has inspired us to create an event that he would love in his honor. Gale was a Bellingham High School and WWU hurdles record holder, local racer, master’s steeplechase and cross country champ and a big supporter of local high school and WWU track and cross country.
The Gale Pfueller Mile will be the featured event with at least three heats - Middle School, High School and Open mile.
