AI Summary
- Georgia House Resolution commending Patrick McGlade, a 21-year-old VCU graduate and ultra-marathon runner, for his extraordinary athletic achievement and humanitarian efforts on behalf of the Arthritis Foundation.
- McGlade ran across the United States from Huntington Beach, California, to Tybee Island, Georgia, starting January 2, 2010, and finishing April 23, 2010—a journey of more than 2,400 miles through eight states and over 50 towns.
- The approximately 4-month coast-to-coast run averaged the equivalent of a marathon per day to raise money and awareness for juvenile arthritis, which affects over 300,000 children in America.
- Sponsored by Representative Day of the 163rd District, the resolution formally recognizes McGlade as an extraordinary athlete and directs the Clerk of the House to provide him an appropriate copy.
