Meet local Marathon runner Ray Charbonneau, who will talk about "The 27th Mile", a new book written by a group of runners, with all proceeds going to The One Fund Boston. 

"The 27th Mile" is an entertaining collection of stories and articles contributed by a wide range of talented writers who run. They're marathon champions and weekend warriors, ultramarathon racers and fitness joggers, running magazine pros and bloggers, best-selling novelists and indie publishing standouts. 

You’ll read stories that extol the spirit that first got us out on the roads to run, that brought us to Boston on a sunny spring day, and that will bring us back to Hopkinton next year and in the years that follow. It’s that spirit we celebrate every time we go for a run, whatever the distance.

All proceeds from sales of "The 27th Mile" will go to support the victims of the tragedy on Boylston Street at the 2013 Boston Marathon. Buy a copy for yourself, buy more as gifts for your friends.
